Renaissance® – the LEGO® of Masonry Design!

When we think of LEGO^®, we envision possibilities, any creation that our imagination can muster. At our disposal, a multitude of colors and shapes that all fit together perfectly.

Renaissance^® Masonry Units offer design and building professionals similar possiblities! These versatile units are used every day to create absolutely unique exteriors.

Although the standard sizes and colors provide tons of flexibility in terms of orientation, patterning and finishes, Renaissance^® Masonry Units are also available in custom colors, sizes and in special fabrications.

In this feature, we’ll take you through some incredible examples of unique stone patterning achieved using Renaissance^® stone!

Random Bonds

All we can say here is WOW! Consistent Renaissance^® sizes allow designers to interchange smooth and rocked finishes to create random patterns for very creative and one-of-a-kind looks. Using different colors for the smooth and rocked stones can accentuate the pattern.

Color Patterning

Getting playful with colored blocks – in any color and arrangement – is easy with Renaissance^®. But seriously, designers have absolute freedom to use our colors to accent other exterior elements, replicate a company or institution’s brand palette, or simply create a completely unique look.

Repeatable Bonds

This designer made full use of color, finish and size options to create a charming, repeatable pattern for this elementary school. What a great example of bringing a distinct vision to life with the flexibility of Renaissance^® Masonry Units!

Integrated Patterns

Designers can integrate a variety of sizes (and finishes) to blend with other exterior elements and to create stunning walls. On this particular building, the designer was able to continue the beveled brick arch with custom-sized smooth Renaissance^®, then use slim pieces to break up the larger rocked stones for an elegant and rich effect.

Varied Orientations

Renaissance^® Masonry Units can be installed vertically and horizontally – on the same wall! Combine this varied effect with color variation for dramatic results. These examples show great executional range – from a stately, unembellished look to a punchy and vibrant finish on the multi-unit residential building.
