Are your walls looking a little too plain? When you’re trying to add a chic touch to the walls, the go-to suggestion is usually to paint them a different color or hang up some artwork. There’s no denying the right color and accessories can improve a room’s style, but they’re not enough to truly transform a room. But what else is there? Stacked stone!

Although stacked stone is usually only considered for those who want to add a rustic or natural element to their homes, it can do so much more. Stacked stone works well in a variety of design styles, lending itself to chic home office ideas or upscale kitchens, and much more. These images prove it!

In decor, as in so many things, there’s value in standing out from the crowd — showing personality and charisma. On the other hand, too much “personality” can look a bit gaudy. That’s why stacked stone is such a great choice to dress up a room. The Coal Canyon quartzite ledger panels installed in this contemporary room are distinctive, but since it’s monochromatic, it’s all about the texture.

Many homeowners love to follow trends, but many trends can look dated in a short amount of time. Stacked stone is a timeless, classic material — a bit of nature never goes out of fashion. Using it in unexpected ways, such as in a glass-front shower stall, offers a dramatic punch that you’ll enjoy for many years.

In contemporary designs, it’s all about contrast. Bright white and dark gray is a classic combination, with the dark Midnight Ash slate wall tile providing depth and eye-pleasing texture. This wall is created with a thin, peel-and-stick stone veneer — it’s real, natural stone, so even though it’s a breeze to install, it will look like a million bucks.
