Stone has been a timeless favorite in design, and for good reason—it’s durable, versatile, and undeniably beautiful. From fireplace facelifts to accent walls, stone can add texture and character to any space. At The Color Craftsmen, we’ve worked with an array of stone styles to help our clients achieve their ideal look.
1. Stone Tiles: Sleek and Sophisticated
Stone tiles are a versatile option that can go almost anywhere—floors, walls, backsplashes, or even fireplaces. Their clean, geometric shapes lend a modern touch to any design. Whether you’re drawn to the warm tones of travertine or the cool sophistication of slate, stone tiles are a fantastic way to bring both style and durability to your home.
For a bolder look, opt for textured tiles that mimic the feel of rough-hewn stone, or choose a polished finish for a sleek, contemporary vibe. The possibilities with stone tiles are endless, and our team loves helping clients find the perfect fit.
2. Stacked Stone: Rustic Meets Refined
Nothing says rustic charm quite like stacked stone. This stone style is achieved by layering pieces of stone to create a three-dimensional effect that’s as striking as it is timeless. Stacked stone is perfect for feature walls, fireplace surrounds, or outdoor areas like patios and retaining walls.
Whether you want a natural, earthy look with uneven edges or a cleaner, more refined arrangement, stacked stone adds depth and texture to any space. The best part? It works equally well in traditional, rustic, and modern designs.
3. River Stone: Soft and Natural
For a design inspired by nature, look no further than river stone. These smooth, rounded stones bring a calming, organic feel to any project. Ideal for creating a spa-like bathroom retreat or a cozy fireplace with a coastal vibe, river stone is all about bringing the outdoors in.
We’ve used river stone to craft everything from fireplace surrounds to accent walls, and it always delivers a unique, natural charm. Pair it with wood accents or neutral colors to create a balanced and inviting look.
4. Flagstone: Casual Elegance
Flagstone is a flat, irregularly shaped stone often used in patios, walkways, and outdoor seating areas, but it also works wonders indoors. Its natural patterns and warm tones give off a relaxed yet elegant vibe.
If you’re looking to create a focal point in your home, consider a flagstone fireplace. Its organic beauty can instantly elevate your space while maintaining a welcoming feel. We can even work with your existing flagstone to enhance its color or create a weathered, aged look.
5. Faux Stone: Lightweight and Budget-Friendly
Love the look of natural stone but need something more budget-friendly or lightweight? Faux stone is an excellent alternative. Today’s faux stone options are incredibly realistic, offering the same rich textures and tones as the real thing.
Faux stone is particularly great for areas where natural stone may be too heavy or costly. With our expert techniques, we can install and finish faux stone to blend seamlessly with your existing design.
Elevate Your Fireplace with Stone
One of our favorite ways to use stone is in fireplace transformations. A fireplace is often the focal point of a room, and the right stone style can completely change its personality. Whether you want a contemporary stacked stone look, a rustic river stone surround, or a sleek tiled finish, we’re here to make your vision a reality.
