Basingstoke Golf Club - Club House Refurbishment features SL Ochre Slimline Stone Cladding Rock Panel

14/10/2024

Spectacular new clubhouse features Norstone stone cladding

Basingstoke Golf Club have recently completed a 3 year overhaul of their facilities, crowned by a new 18 hole course and a modern, beautifully designed clubhouse.

With a thoroughly modern architectural design, the clubhouse is fully equipped with a well-stocked bar, pro shop, changing rooms and a number of conference rooms available for members. Norstone® Ochre Blend SL stone cladding has been used as both an internal and external design feature, with it's most impressive visual effect being where it is used as a feature wall in the clubhouse bar area.
The SL slimline cladding in ochre brings warmth and diverse colours to the rooms and building whilst providing durable low maintenance finishes that will stand the test of time. Taking full advantage of the Norstone fingerlocking panel system and associated corner units, SL rock panel was able to wrap around pillars, columns and corners with ease.

The lighter thinner nature of these SL panels means that the overall weight and structural presence is greatly reduced yet the stone wall effect is maintained. The finished result is spectacular and we are very proud to see Norstone Rock Panel™ system used on this brilliant project.

For more details, please visit the Golf Club website: https://www.basingstokegolfclub.co.uk/www.basingstokegolfclub.co.uk/

Featured Norstone® Products

Available in Ochre Blend, Charcoal and new Off-White, the Slimline (SL) range is slightly thinner and lighter (15-30mm thick) and allows us to pass significant savings on to our clients. They are the same natural stone as our classic XLS and XLV ranges and the same size (610mm x 152mm) panels but weigh only approx. 48 kilos per m2.

We've kept all the features that make Norstone the market leader in natural stone cladding; precision cut, hand assembled unique panels, interlocking corner joints that do away with the need for time-consuming mitre cuts, the highest quality natural stone and, of course, our unique dual warranty for complete peace of mind.

​All this at an amazing budget price!

White XLS Rock Panel™ at Elm Lodge, Hartley Wintney, Hampshire

A new luxury residential care home in Hampshire is opening its doors and the designers have made fantastic use of Norstone’s White Quartz XLS Rock Panel™.
 
Applied to many internal walls at the magnificent Elm Lodge in Wintney, Hampshire, White XLS is an excellent choice for a striking feature wall anywhere in a build.
 
 The elegant quartz brings a bright and light appearance to any space - its clean, soothing appearance inspires a sense of calm and wellbeing.
 
The height of luxury, White XLS Rock Panels also have the magical quartzite sparkle; in sunlight or artificial light the ruggedly natural 3D, uneven surfaces bring out an attractive, faceted diamond effect.
 
Rock Panel XLS is our best-selling stone cladding system and benefits from precision cut panels for seamless assembly, complimented by fingerjointed corner units for creating fantastic wrapround designs that encompass internal and external corners, columns and more.
This stylish bright white stacked stone cladding panel system is especially suitable for large surfaces, feature walls, kitchens and bathrooms and endless types of interior solutions – both commercial and private homeowners. For even more versatility, XLS Rock Panel™ can also be used externally, and is suitable for doorways, gates, walls, garden features, water features and more. A particularly stylish way of using XLS white rock panels is to use it on walls that flow from an internal room to an external space separated by a bi-fold door for example…
 
For a stunning look like the one achieved at Elm Lodge, accept no cheap substitutes – if you want timeless, high quality natural stone cladding, it has to be Norstone!

About XLS Rock Panel™ by Norstone®
If you're searching for the three-dimensional look of natural stacked stone, look no further than Norstone Rock Panels, a 100% natural stone cladding system which is ideal for both interior and exterior use. Rock Panels are machine cut, and their precision modular form ensures quick, easy and economical installation.
 
Five Brilliant Colours. Unique Norstone Design
Rock Panels are available in a selection of textures and five primary colours: the rustic, rugged appeal of Ochre Blend; the cool, subdued tones of Charcoal; the warm, mellow hues of Ivory Quartz; the sleek, contemporary styling of White Quartz and our warm and inviting Sahara rock panels. The rock panels are handmade from between 15 and 18 selected pieces of machine cut natural quartz  sedimentary rock and each panel is 100% unique in colour and design.
 
The World's Most Advanced Corner System
Corners are extremely important in any project, which is why Norstone prides itself on its innovation of the only two-part, finger-jointed corner system in the world. The inter-woven fingers deliver the most seamless look possible and ensures rapid installation and a huge reduction in on-site labour costs. We provide internal and external rock panel corner units with the flexibility of 15 degrees either side of a 90-degree right angle thus saving expensive and time-consuming mitre cuts for most standard corners.

Blue Credit Union - perfectly Planc™

1/3/2022

0 Comments

 
Norstone has recently supplied our new Lavastone Graphite Planc™ product to the Blue Credit Union in Cheynne, Wyoming in the USA.

The architects were Open Studio. The brilliant use of the Norstone Graphite Planc stone cladding, both internally and externally creates a beautiful harmonious work environment for all the employees and customers alike.

Combined with some attractive dark metals and offset with warm wooden canopies and panelling, the overall look is very modern and stylish.

The Lavastone Graphite Planc, with its soft textured grey tones,  is eye-catching during the day and night as seen in the photos above.
 
The stone cladding which is Linea in style and seamless to boot gives the building a slick, smooth appearance that also instills confidence and solidity to the company's new corporate headquarters.

No pun intended, but I think you must give us Credit for this product and innovative styling.

Norstone, the leading stone cladding experts.

Featured stone cladding range: Norstone PLANC™

Graphite Lava Stone takes our popular Platinum lava stone and applies a honed finish to the surface, resulting in a colour that is slightly darker and a surface that is smooth to the touch yet retains the unique surface features that make lava stone products stand out. We recommend sealing honed finishes as you'll find it hard to keep your hands off the silky smooth surface!

Norstone Planc Series Large Format Veneer is made from 100% natural stone, meticulously sourced from hand-picked quarries and fabricated to the highest standards for the most demanding markets around the globe.

Lavastone features Platinum and Graphite.

Basalt is available in
Grey Basalt and Ebony Basalt.

Norstone Ochre XLS & Ebony Aksent™ stone cladding pairing

25/6/2018

1 Comment

 

Commercial project combines two colours and finishes to stunning effect at West Midlands shopping centre

Norstone prides itself that it supplies stone cladding products to both retail and commercial clients alike. One of our most recent projects shown in these pictures is for a large supermarket complex that had a combination of both Ochre XLS and our new Aksent Ebony natural stone cladding.

We are delighted with the results; Ochre XLS and Aksent Ebony cladding panel systems have been paired in  striking fashion to provide a beautiful façade for this busy commercial shopping Centre.

The project, like most our larger projects, was specified by architects who obviously saw that this beautiful combination of the two stone cladding products would work.

The corner detail of Norstone’s cladding products was an important feature given the large number of external corners that can be seen on these columns extending skyways.

Positioned in the West Midlands in Brierley Hill, the finished façade is there for everyone to see - this combination may work for you too!.

Owing to popular demand Norstone has introduced a new Slimline range specifically designed for large scale commercial projects.
