- Making Light Out of Heavy
Axolotl’s scope
Explore lightweight stone surfaces for architectural forms that would be difficult to make using thick stone.
Materials and processes
Natural Stone Surface and Flex Stone, with Sculpt carving and polishing available for bespoke three-dimensional designs.
The challenge and response
Weight and rigidity can limit the use of stone. Thin natural stone sheets allow selected surfaces to follow curved forms, with achievable curvature depending on the stone and grain direction.
