This new residence hall at the University of the South contained more than 25,000 square feet of our medium veneer irregular fieldstone.
The weathered irregular fieldstone provided an old style, castle like appearance, complete with a more than 50 foot tall chimney.
The fieldstone color ranges include brown, tan, buff, gray and black to give this project a natural and timeless appeal.
We also provided more than 7000 square feet of our chestnut flagstone and step treads. The lighter tan and buff colors provided a nice contrast to the weathered rustic look of the fieldstone.
The Peace Center

Located in the heart of downtown Greenville, South Carolina, The Peace Center hosts hundreds of performance art events each year. For this breathtaking renovation project, we supplied more than 20,000 square feet of our Tennessee Blue/Gray Stone.
Silvara Stone was used for all the wall caps, step treads and pavers. The entrance off of Main Street includes a beautiful pattern of offset 12×24″ pavers.
To ensure the project was one-of-a-kind, a unique blend of light and dark grays were used, with splashes of earth tones for highlights. Every piece of stone was hand and/or machine cut and installed in a pattern.
The cap stone, pavers and step treads can all be seen together here, as well as a view from the corner of Main Street.
More than 7,000 square feet of walkways and patios were laid with our irregular gray flagstone, while our hand-pitched cap stone provide a beautiful, natural seating for the outdoor amphitheater.
