Stone-Clad Exterior on a Contemporary Home

Project Overview

Bold, boxy volumes clad in tan stone give this contemporary home a strong, natural presence. The photos show the stone carried around corners and up to a cantilevered metal canopy.

On modern designs, crisp corners and straight terminations at windows and canopies matter as much as the stone itself. For materials, the installation process and price ranges, see our guide to exterior stone cladding and stone siding.

What the Photos Show

  • Stone used on full building volumes

How This Type of Work Is Done

01

Moisture management

Water-resistive barrier, flashing and weep details are installed first.

02

Corner layout

Corner units are set plumb so each volume reads as solid.

03

Field installation

Courses are kept level across long wall runs.
