NATURAL STONE CASE STUDY - HOTEL MISSONI - EDINBURGH

STONE DESCRIPTION:

Stoke Hall buff sandstone is fine to medium grained and constant in colour. This versatile sandstone has been continually extracted from the Stoke Hall Quarry at Grindleford, Derbyshire since 1835.

Its durability and consistent buff colour makes Stoke Hall buff sandstone a popular choice for a wide range of building types and styles across the UK. With extensive reserves readily available, Stoke Hall buff sandstone is perfect for all sizes of projects, from major commercial builds to residential developments.

PROJECT SUMMARY:

A luxury hotel designed by an Italian fashion dynasty in Edinburgh’s Old Town.

The Royal Mile development – created on the site of former council offices has become home to the first of more than 30 Hotel Missoni hotels across the world.

THE BUILD SOLUTION:

This significant project stands proud among a range of natural sandstone builds some dating back to the early 1900s – The cleverly clad façade provides the build with a dynamic, very clean buff almost veneer like finish which in return brings an iconic timeless style, colour and glamour to its prime location on the corner of George IV Bridge and the Royal Mile.
