Crumbling stone and new build in the news !

A nice surprised this morning reading the AJ online, http://www.architectsjournal.co.uk/news/daily-news/prs-black-cultural-archives-opens-doors/8666877.article?blocktitle=Big-pic&contentID=11152

We do not know where the stone come from but, it is definitely more sustainable than other cladding. Wet cast stone can be sometimes so expensive.

Another shot at using stone in a modern urban setting close to an old georgian building.

We hope the building will aged gracefully and blend in the setting.

While in France the infamous  Arche de la Defence  plague with marble cladding issue is being restored very soon. Cladding work is not our favourite work but we recognise the knowledge behind it. From the sourcing of the stone and compatibility of material with other product.
