The stonework in this apartment indicates that nothing is impossible with Adriatic Stone. Not only did this work require bringing together the brilliantly designed mix of Calacatta marble, polished granite and honed

and honed (Matt) granite, but all the stone had to be lifted 12 floors. The owners of this property have been so delighted with the work of the designer and Adriatic Stone, that they keep coming back.

Challenges are welcome at Adriatic Stone. This stone kitchen bench had a 2.2m cantilever. Also long pieces of stone had to be carefully lifted up several flights of stairs. To set off a superb bench, the patterns

This long bar in the MCG members area required repeated grooves along the front to break up the long expanse of stone, and to create a stylised effect. Adriatic Stone achieved this by using specialised 

CNC milling equipment that is rare among stone companies in Melbourne. What made the finished article stand out was the attention to detail and precision provided by the Adriatic Stone tradesmen.
