Can stonework be modern as well as traditional?

Absolutely. While stone is often associated with traditional or historic buildings, it is equally suited to modern architecture. Contemporary stonework features clean lines, minimalist layouts, smooth finishes, and neutral color palettes. Stone can be used for modern facades, interior feature walls, fireplaces, and landscaping elements that complement glass, steel, and concrete. Advances in cutting and installation techniques allow stonemasons to create sleek, precise designs that align with modern aesthetics. At the same time, stone retains its natural warmth and texture, adding depth and contrast to contemporary spaces. This versatility makes stone an excellent choice for both classic and modern properties. A skilled stonemason can adapt design approaches to ensure the stonework matches the architectural vision.
