Work-in-Progress | Beautifully Captured

This is from a recent project… It’s hard to take beautiful pictures generally, it’s harder to capture the architecture of closed spaces and then it’s yet harder to capture flooring in closed spaces! This is a beautiful laying of cobbles and a beautiful picture too. Credit to the karigars and credit to the person who clicked it like this.

Do you have a project where you would like to lay multi-color cobbles like these?

Polka Dot Steps for your Garden

In Yellow/Brown Kota Stone, a lovely idea for Garden Steps or for your outdoors.

While this is done in Yellow/Brown Kota Stone, this can be done in any stone in any surface finish. Sandstone, Granite, Marble, whatever fits your project and the aesthetics of your project.

If you take an aerial shot using a drone, these would look like polka dots!

What does your project demand? Share with us and we will help you with some amazing options in Indian Natural Stone.

Nimbahera Stone Outdoors at Taj Sarsa Hotel Udaipur

Some glimpses of Nimbahera stone outdoors. This is Taj Sarsa Hotel in Udaipur.

Credit to the architect and the artisans who accomplished this. May have been done long back. But that’s the thing about using Indian natural stone. It lends a beauty nothing can really match.

An outdoor seating area featuring a light-colored stone wall made of Nimbahera stone, with a waiter in formal attire standing nearby and a table set with utensils and a kettle.
A staircase made of Nimbahera stone with a smooth finish, leading upwards, flanked by a wall and plants on either side.
View of a patio with a circular table and chairs under an umbrella, surrounded by well-maintained green lawn and palm trees, showcasing Nimbahera stone flooring.

I find this rush to install glossy surfaces indoors and outdoors quite pukish at times. Vitrified tiles to me feel like ‘cheap glamour and gloss’.

How are you shaping your projects? Do you have the expanse and do you have a desire to make a long-lasting beautiful place?

Want to create a Stone Wall?

My visits to Rajasthan were filled with such sights, such walls erected around schools and government offices and buildings. It’s easy to spot them even now whenever you visit places in Rajasthan and your eyes are open for architectural discoveries.

A close-up view of a textured stone wall under construction, with earthy surroundings and vegetation in the background.

Pardon the quality of the picture above but you get the idea, I hope.

These walls can stand forever if the pieces of stone are bound well. They barely need any upkeep or maintenance efforts. And lend the project such a character.

The thing about showing such walls is that you need to photograph them from a fair distance, which is often not possible. They feel amazing in actual anyway.

Here’s what we can offer in case you desire to create a wall like that.

A stack of rectangular stone blocks resting on a bed of smaller stone fragments, showcasing the materials used for constructing robust walls.

What kind of walls have you planned for your project? Do not let them be painted and bland. There are better ways to erect walls.

75 mm Thick Granite for Road Bunding

A recent dispatch…

Two men standing next to a truck bed filled with thick granite slabs, ready for transport.

Plenty of applications for such thick heavy duty granite slabs. Some time back we made some for outdoor benches too. Once installed, no worrying about maintenance and upkeep. It is a forever thing.

Chocolate Stone

Work in progress… Flooring the area of a bungalow entrance and courtyard with a combination of Chocolate stone (with leather-finish surface) and Yellow stone.

Picture taken in near dark. Looks pretty?

No fad, this will look great for ages.

Paving Pattern at a Resort in Udaipur

I like curves and curvy patterns in landscaping. Now have a look at this paving pattern of cobbles at this resort in Udaipur that we supplied to.

This feels like folds, or layer-over-layer. Nicely done.

Does your project have the expanse of land to create interesting landscaping patterns? We can contribute with cobbles.

Black and Spotted

Dear Landscaper, once you floor your space like this, do you think there’s a chance folks visiting and walking through such spaces will ever get bored?

You place any object, any furniture, any insane color and this floor will make everything feel in place. No joke!

Enduring Black Beauty, if you can call it that! 🙂

Giraffe Cover | Crazy Kota Stone Flooring

Have a look at this.

As is evident this is outdoor flooring. Looks fabulous? What do you think?

I feel such randomly shaped Kota Stone would be stunning indoors as well. The space between the stone pieces can be much much finer. And the floor can polished glossy like mirror.

For a moment, looking at this picture, it felt like Giraffe skin 😀.

Soffedge Cobbles | Ideal for Paving

Have you experienced machine-cut cobbles? Not just while laying but while walking on them, especially walking barefoot?

These Soffedge Cobbles are an upgraded version, you can say. Demand a special process to assume these soft edges. They’ve got a look, no? And you can experience the  softness of the edges while walking on them too.

Work in Progress | Resort at Udaipur

A view of a resort construction site in Udaipur, showcasing a pathway made with multi-color machine-cut cobbles, surrounded by landscaping and mountains in the background.

Udaipur is the destination for ‘destination wedding’, right?

This picture was clicked last year. A resort project in progress. By now, it would all be over and done I guess.

You can see the laying of multi-color machine-cut cobbles with surface dimension of 5.5″ * 5.5″. Looks pretty even in the unfinished look.

Imagine vitrified tiles used in a city like Udaipur that has such rich architectural heritage. Blasphemy! And yet they are doing it all the over the place, the silly straight-lined aluminium panelled hotels.

At places, you see windows made with the classic royal palace-like window-frames, and then floored with vitrified tiles. Pukish when you realise the kind of minds at work.

Horror!

Do you have a project with a good expanse?

Within the 4 Walls & Beyond

A winding stone pathway made of irregularly shaped slabs, surrounded by lush greenery and colorful flowers, leading towards a brick wall and gate.

It’s crazy how interior designers and architects and even sellers of stone and hyper-expensive luxury marble think. And it’s crazy how even house-owners who are doing up their houses think.

Just because typical house layouts have square or rectangular shaped rooms doesn’t mean the flooring has to be the same. If anything, the flooring needs to disrupt and break the TYRANNY OF THE SQUARE/ RECTANGLE.

How do you do that? You do that by using crazy, non-uniform, dimensional stone slabs and stone pieces.

What you see in the picture can easily be done outdoors. But it can look so so gorgeous indoors too. The question is, do we have the kaarigars to pull it off?

Crazy? Or Most Natural?

We give strange names on occasions. Such that the most natural is called CRAZY.

Look at this outdoor flooring. Since this brown stone doesn’t have regular four corners and size of machine-cut slabs, this is called Crazy Brown. And yet this is much closer to nature, and will feel so much more attractive and ‘earthy’ as time passes by.

Uneven brown stone flooring with various shapes and sizes, creating a natural and earthy appearance.

Actually, looking at this kind of flooring one might say that the indoor flooring done using vitrified tiles is the most crazy thing we do! What is your sense?

Paving in Progress

Multi-color cobbles… Work-in-progress at a paving/landscaping project.

If you aren’t looking for such almost-regular cobbles, you can pave with Tumbled Stone. One can say, Tumbled Stone is a different and better-feeling form of flagstone. Great for outdoor paving and landscaping. Have a look.

Crazy Stone for Landscaping

Sharing pictures of an ongoing landscaping project, Ahmedabad. Out here locally, this unshaped stone is called crazy stone.

As the project progresses, will add some more pictures. It’s a huge space, huge open landscape.

What do you think?

Do you think this kind of unshaped stone can also be used indoors? Of course, the surface finish in that case would be different to suit the indoor needs and looks. Imagine!

Rock-face Basalt Pavers

Paved surface made of basalt stones, featuring a rock-like texture and a grid pattern. Ideal for outdoor areas like pathways and gardens.

Basalt with rock-like surface. How do you like this?

Won’t go wrong for paving outdoor areas like compounds, pathways, parking areas, garden scaping.

Paving Paths with Cobblestone

A pic of work-in-progress, paving cobbles for pathway for a residential society.

Not sure if the picture gives you an exact idea of the color of these cobbles. They are brown. In the language of stone, brown may be slightly different from what one understands in other contexts.

Size: 150 mm * 150 mm on the surface side, thickness 40 to 60 mm.

Somewhat similar to cobblestones are flagstones; they are mostly irregularly shaped and have bigger surface area. If someone attempts flagstone flooring indoors, should make that space ever-attractive.

Boundary Wall Stone Grill at a Public Park

Have a look at this work-in-progress:

This is installed in a boundary wall at a public park.

Reminiscent of classic, ancient, old-time designs that live for hundreds of years. At plenty of places over the years, folks have installed cement grills because they come cheap, but are they any match to this? Even in this work-in-progress pic it looks so charming.

Are you working on a bungalow project? Or a farm-house project? You think these could look beautiful in your space and architectural plans?

8 more options to texture your walls

If you don’t like blank interior walls, you have a few options to do them up:

  1. Textured Wall Paint
  2. Mural
  3. Framed Painting
  4. K. K. Stones’ Natural Stone Decor Panels
  5. Funny shiny backlit translucent Italian or some other marble

Thank God, there’s no vitrified tiles for such walls. Well, bathroom walls are done up with vitrified tiles these days. Limit them to bathrooms, please. So far so good.

For blank exterior walls, what do you have? If the walls are under a shade, all of the above may work. But if the walls are exposed to all kinds of elements, these handcrafted stone decor options may feel good.

Like them?

Grooved Cobble Stones

A pile of cobblestones with 10mm grooves at the edges, surrounded by various stone slabs in a workshop, with two workers visible in the background.

These cobbles have 10mm groove at the edges. These are different from the usual cobble stones we see. And will accord a different look to the landscape.

Over time, natural stone changes and finds its own look, as it interacts with the elements. Would be interesting to observe these.

Does your project have space for these?

A granite waterfall feature made from Black Granite, showcasing a textured wall with a water spout, awaiting the flow of water.

It’s a granite waterfall created using Black Granite, at a bungalow project. Actually you can create such waterfalls in a variety of ways, using a variety of granite. Red, White, Brown… Can be multi-hued too.

You can’t see the water yet. It will start falling soon. 🙂 Actually we’ll update with a picture of water falling. Soon!
