Material and character.

The same stone read at three scales: the grain at actual size, the full slab and the block it comes from.

Origin

Domestic limestone selected in block. Formma does not start from an available size: it starts from a stone it wants to work with, and only then decides how to cut and treat it.

Size is a starting point, not a limit.

The sizes marketed are a starting point. Working from block or slab allows other sizes, cutting plans and special pieces to be studied according to the needs of the project. Feasibility is studied case by case: it depends on the stone, the available block and the piece.

Beyond the standard size.

Large size
Fewer joints, a continuous reading of the plane.
Step
Solid piece with a worked edge.
Edges and junctions
