This lake house boasts a captivating exterior adorned with Oiled Nubuck Castle Rock. The square and rectangular shapes bring a timeless feeling of elegance that stand as a testament to the integration of nature’s beauty into modern architectural design. The natural dark brown wooden siding and window trim balance perfectly with the earthy buff, tan, cream, brown, and black hues, helping this home settle in harmoniously with the beautiful greenery along the lakeshore. The slightly raked beige mortar acts as a neutral canvas to accentuate the earth tones on this home, giving it a sophisticated and welcoming feel.
As one of the most highly regarded and durable leathers available, nubuck has a history of being associated with aristocracy and grandeur. Like its leather counterpart that comes from the hide’s top grain, Oiled Nubuck veneer stones are mined from our quarry’s top layers. This material also exudes a similar soft, velvet-like appearance, fitting for a sophisticated cigar lounge, an expansive craftsman mansion, or any masterpiece you create next.
Castle Rock consists of rough squares and rectangles that are split, not sawn. Oiled Nubuck Castle Rock ranges in heights from 4″ to 12″ and lengths from 6″ to 24″ for full and thin veneer stone.
Our Castle Rock line of natural stone veneers brings masonry back to the structural permanence and ambiance of European stone castles from the 12th and 13th centuries. A Castle Rock installation has all of the benefits of stone masonry applications used on historic stone castles – strength, reliability, and durability.
