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.

Coombe House, London. A 12-month full makeover of a London private property, this transformation is incredible and supremely well executed. Norstone XLS Rock Panel™ stone cladding is used throughout the build (internally and externally) as shown in the gallery photos, and it has been used as a design signature feature to the front façade, adding great kerb appeal to the property.

One of our most popular and versatile stone cladding products; the subtle colour spectrum from light grey to burnt orange makes it suitable for both modern and traditional interiors and is also very widely used in gardens and landscaping. Each stone cladding panel is hand assembled after being precision cut by machine - this ensures ease of installation and the unique individual appearance of each ochre blend XLS rock panel.
 
The high-quality natural stone used on each and every cladding panel ensures that the colourful and warm palette is ever-changing whilst giving a timeless look that is inviting and crucially, low maintenance.
 
Choosing a quality Norstone® cladding solution ensures that a building’s appearance will remain beautiful and impressive for years to come. XLS Rock Panel™ - it stands the test of time.
 
Don’t accept cheap, inferior substitutes, if it matters, choose Norstone® stone cladding.

The simplicity of the Norstone Rock panel system can make any space look fantastic.

Previously the gate entrance with standard concrete block work looked like any entrance; but with the installation of Norstone Ochre XLS Rock Panel™, together with other natural elements such as the rich timber fencing makes the entrance captivating.

At a relatively small price outlay, you have not only enhanced the look of your home but certainly also the value.

Just look at the before and after photos...

Go on, make your neighbours jealous, go and talk to Norstone about your home's stone cladding project.

We've seen Norstone stone cladding used in very diverse scenarios over the last 20 years, and this new project is no exception.

Our client, The Falkland Islands Company Limited, have opted for Norstone's market leading Rock Panel™ stone cladding for a new construction project on the Falkland Islands! Yes, the Falkland Islands, over 8,000 miles away from the UK. A journey of epic proportions into a land with conditions that are challenging, to say the least (see below for more about the Falkland Islands).

So, which system and application approach would be best suited for the wild and windy location? Luckily our Rock Panel™ cladding systems are designed to handle adverse weather conditions and are supported by the combination of KNAUF Aquapanels and Laticrete MVIS adhesive. Offering unparalleled levels of support and adhesion, this rock solid partnership means the rock panels are secure and will last the test of time.

The project shown below is work in progress, we can't wait to see the completed design. It employs our Ochre Blend (SL) Slim Rock Panels affixed onto Knauf AquaPanel that have been mounted onto the building's front elevation. The slimline rock panels are thinner and weigh less than conventional panels - for maximum performance they have been  assembled with Laticrete MVIS Adhesive.

Check out this incredible pond, clad in Norstone XLV Classic Rock Panels!

The carp would be incredibly proud of their habitat, if only they could see how the designers have colour-matched their brilliant colours to that of the Norstone OCHRE BLEND’s vibrant colours. They would be so house proud, or is that “Pond Proud”. I think we might have just coined a new descriptive term.

The designers at Kent Aquatics, with their imagination and together with their skilled installation, have created a tropical oasis, in the middle of a UK garden. With the lovely weather featured in this video, for one moment you could picture yourself in a sultry, exotic location such as Asia or South America.

The natural elements of Norstone Ochre Blend XLV Rock Panel™ stone cladding are perfectly suited to this curved structure; it is assembled skilfully, the kidney shaped aquatic feature is someone’s dream garden space.

We at Norstone love working with garden designers, landscape designers and structural engineers - no project is too challenging when we come together. A special project like this pond show that dreams should come true, only limited by imagination (and in some cases budget).

Call us at Norstone to get inspired for your special project.

*The designers used Norstone’s market-leading Classic Rock Panel™ XLV range in the OCHRE BLEND finish. It is available in a range of stylish colours. Rock Panel™ system comes in a range of formats, including XLS, XLV, XLX and SL (slimline).

The versatility and ease of installation of Norstone stone cladding is something that is highly valued by architects and designers from all spectrums of interior and exterior design industries and today we are proud to showcase a very attractive use of Norstone SLIMLINE (SL) Rock Panel™ cladding.

Aspen Lodges Ltd is a small company based in Wickersley who serve the South Yorkshire region. They specialise in the design and build of unique timber framed and SIP panel garden buildings. 

The Ochre slimline stone panel cladding, supplied by Norstone, was specified on this building along with the other high specification materials to create a stunning garden room and a nod towards the mid-century modern style.

Aspen Lodges would be happy to discuss your next garden room project and can be contacted on 07447000079.

Or you can view their gallery of additional projects at: www.aspenlodges.co.uk.

As the gallery above demonstrates, our cladding works beautifully with the timber and the large glass frontage, delivering a stunning look and with Norstone's unique fingerjointed corners, the installation process for wrapround corners is a straightforward process.

If you are considering an outdoor garden building, we hope you have been inspired!

We have a client currently undertaking a new build project which features some wonderful use of the stand out beauty of Norstone Rustik™ stone cladding in Ochre Blend finish. Have a look at the work in progress snaps so far, we cannot wait to see the finished project as it really looks like the property is shapping up to be a showstopper!

This is a Project yet to be completed however the use of Ochre XLV, Softens and compliments a high end build.
Here in these pictures is a perfect example that demonstrates how Norstone Cladding can transform common features normally considered eyesores, such as garaging, into a focal point of an architecturally inspired home.
The gallery here shows how the cladding Rock Panels™ not only incorporate the garage into the design, but rather it becomes part of the overall gorgeous design of this new build. This is done solely through the use of Norstone Ochre XLV stone cladding.

These three pictures have been taken at exactly the same time and yet, you can see how the different light changes the look of the Ochre XLV stone cladding. With the direct sunlight, the Ochre XLV has a soft Cotswold Sandstone effect, while in areas of no sunlight, the Ochre XLV embodies the more rustic hues, mixed with soft burnt orange, with a light contemporary grey. It is truly a masterpiece waiting for its new home owners to also enjoy and no doubt, enjoy bragging rights.
 
We at Norstone truly take pride in our Guaranteed and Warrantied installations, bring new joy but more importantly, new design concepts into the ever increasing usage of stone cladding for premium modern external design.

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!.
