Custom Design Services

LODESTAR, Statements in Stone provides custom design services from line drawing to color drawing to final production and installation.

Overview
With over 20 years of experience, LODESTAR, Statements in Stone is available to help architects, designers, and private clients evaluate, specify, detail, and fabricate natural, hardstone, and semi-precious stone installations for both residential and commercial projects.

We can create an identical antique reproduction based on authentic period art pieces or research one from our extensive archive library. We also create custom-designed work following your most exquisite discriminating requests, or simply adapt an existing model or design.

LODESTAR's Design Department can be involved from complete concept to faithful reproduction of the customer's concepts, drawing, or electronic files. LODESTAR will generate original concepts, collaborate or consult with your designers, and select materials.
