Kinaro Tan Limestone Fireplace, Brown Limestone

The focal point of this high end lobby is a fireplace elevation, designed by Callison Architecture, conceived in collaboration with YMSW. Models rendered in Sketchup helped the design team resolve various detailing issues throughout the design process. Once the materials were pulled together, YMSW developed a series of unique rusticated finishes that put the finishing touch on this unusual natural stone veneer

Kinaro Tan Limestone?
Kinaro Tan Limestone ? is our most popular limestone for residential applications. The combination of peach, tan, cream and light grey hues create a rich but flexible color palette for both traditional and contemporary settings. The dramatic veining can be honed as a feature wall or subdued with any number of the percussive hand finishes. When considering this robust limestone both the fleuri cut and vein cut material offer up rich possibilities. For a more rugged, architectural effect, the scored and chiseled finish can be a very provocative solution for a water feature. An example of this can be seen in the Salmon Bay Residence project.
