When Contemporary and Traditional Collide

pacific art stone contemporary traditional feature

The overall construction and aesthetic of this home screams traditional. However, the Shadow Valley Sawn-Cut Ledgestone from our Altera Collection brings a contemporary edge to this home. With the white stucco detailing setting a beautiful canvas for other materials to take center stage, the blend of materials and colors transforms this structure into a more current take on the traditional home. Elements such as the garage doors, the lighting, and the glass railings, blend beautifully and cohesively to give this traditional home a contemporary spin; it evokes the feeling of an updated European cottage.

The Sawn-Cut Ledge Stone is a new clean contemporary profile we introduced in late 2019 and our goal was to bring a fresh take on the classic stacked stone look, whilst still having that rustic accent. Whereas the classic ledge stone profiles will have a more rustic vibe, the Sawn-Cut is a contemporary crowd pleaser with its sharp edges, hefty texture, and clean lines. The installation of this stone is best when tight-fitted together to maintain that contemporary vibe and clean look.
