Limestone

Limestone is one of the most popular architectural materials in modern minimalist projects. Formed from the sedimentation of calcareous materials over millions of years, this stone has a uniform texture, calm colors, and a natural and warm feel. By carefully selecting quarries and using processing technologies, Lumenstone offers limestones that are suitable for luxurious spaces, modern facades, and sustainable projects.

Key Features of Lumen Stone Limestone

• Uniform and minimal texture: no sharp streaks; suitable for modern designs and bright and calm architecture.
• Natural colors: including cream, beige, light gray, gray-beige, silver, and camel.
• Soft and warm surface: has more visual warmth than crystal stones.
• Suitable for facades and interior spaces: Due to its natural porosity, it is breathable and environmentally friendly.
• Ability to perform various finishes: honed, waterjet, sandblasted, brushed, and tumbled.
• Favorable thermal behavior: less heat absorption; suitable for hot climates.
• Lighter stone than marble/granite: reduces the dead load of the structure.
