Stone, fluting and bespoke artwork

Plaster shaped by hand into form. Light and shadow become part of the wall.

A full wall hand-carved as weathered sandstone, with deep layered edges catching the light.
The finishes

Six sculptural finishes

Every sculptural wall is drawn and sampled first, then carved on site so it fits the room exactly. See all our rock walling.

01

Fluted

Vertical flutes formed in plaster by hand, each one slightly irregular so the wall ripples like fabric as the light moves across it. Seamless, with no panels or joints.

Rhythmic, soft, light-catching

Best for
Statement walls, bedheads, receptions, hospitality
Look
One of one, made to commission
How rock walling is made

Carved, then coloured

The stone is sculpted into a base coat while it is still workable, then coloured by hand in layers and matched against a real stone sample, until the wall reads as warm country stone.
