Landscape Architecture

Standing Stone specializes in designing projects with a focus on traditional stonework.  We help clients determine their goals and guide them through the process from schematic design to construction plans. We use a wide array of representation techniques from hand drawn sketches to 3D computer simulations. Whatever best represents the project is what we will do.

Masonry Restoration

For select projects Standing Stone will provide restoration consultation services and the restoration work on historic masonry structures.  It is very important that modern Portland cement not be used on historic structures as it can cause irreversible damage.  Standing Stone is experienced working with traditional lime and natural hydraulic lime mortars that are the correct products for historic stone structures.

Standing Stone LLC was awarded the bid for the restoration of Opus 40 at the beginning of February. Over the next three years we will be undertaking an assessment, creating a manual for preservation, and rebuilding some of the parts of the sculptural landform.
