PROCESS

Methods

CONSULTATION

Forethought generates excellence. We consult early on, contributing to the conceptual phase and collaborating on the development of detailed specifications. We troubleshoot potential issues before they arise, ensuring all parties have a clear roadmap to success from the outset.

 

MATERIAL SOURCING

We are on a first-name basis with the world’s finest stone producers. Be it in Carrara, Italy, Sao Paulo, Brazil, or remote corners of Asia, reputable quarry owners know Artisan Stoneworks. And we know which suppliers share our commitment to delivering top-tier materials on time and on budget.

 

PRECISION PREPARATION

Our proprietary digital technology enhances old-world craftsmanship to provide unparalleled aesthetic and logistical control, eliminating uncertainty about the final result.

Artisan TruFit™ develops as-built shop drawings, facilitating our goal of 95% shop cutting for the highest precision and minimized on-site time.

Using images of the actual stone slabs procured for a project, Artisan StoneVision™ creates an exact mockup of the finished environment. Clients can inspect how we precisely match adjacent pieces for pattern, vein and tone to optimize the total impact.

 

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

We are hands-on managers throughout the project life cycle. Continued collaboration and constant communication keep all parties informed, issues addressed, options explored, and surprises avoided.

 

INSTALLATION

Because of our thorough preparation, our installs minimize disruption – supporting productivity by our fellow contractors and increasing client satisfaction.
