Stone and Time

Stone has served homes, temples, palaces and public spaces for thousands of years. Architecture and technology change; its natural character remains. Formed over millions of years, each slab has its own patterns, colour and texture. Its authenticity cannot be reproduced exactly in a factory. Quality stone can gain character with age: floors develop a patina, walls respond to light and exterior surfaces settle into their surroundings. Architects choose it with the future of a space in mind. At Marmojet, blocks travel from quarry selection through skilled processing into homes, hotels, commercial spaces and architectural projects worldwide. Installation is another stage in that continuing story. Its appeal comes from a quality that takes time, rather than from following a fashion.
