Sintered Stone Case Studies, Drawn From Real Project Decisions

Explore how sintered stone moves from a visual reference to a buildable surface package. Each file documents a different application—kitchens, hotel bathrooms, lobby walls, resort spaces, exterior facades and furniture—with the material, fabrication, packing and delivery decisions that sit behind the finished photographs.

01 / Built project files

Built projects. Different surface problems.

Use these cases by project type or by the problem you need to solve. Every card leads to a detailed project file with context, product direction and the practical decisions behind specification and supply.

Zander Rooftop: One Interior, Four Surface Jobs

A layered attic conversion where pale architectural fields, dark joinery, wet-area vanities and furniture surfaces needed one visual language but different technical releases. The case follows the decisions from zone schedule and face direction to piece drawings and packing sequence.

Resort / high-volume project supply

Azure Coast Luxury Resort

A hospitality supply case spanning public areas, guest-facing surfaces and exterior-related applications. It focuses on keeping finish references, quantities, production releases, export protection and phased delivery understandable across a large project team.

Kitchen / translucent stone expression

Lumina Penthouse Kitchen

A Cristallo Onyx kitchen case built around an island, worktop and illuminated visual effect. It documents the smaller details that control the result: slab selection, light test, support, openings, edge build-up, visible faces and the order in which information was approved.

Bathroom / repeated room types

Hotel Bathroom Walls and Vanities

A repeated-room bathroom package where panel dimensions, basin templates, tap drilling, wall returns and crate labelling had to remain consistent. The project file separates slab supply from waterproofing, falls, substrate and the local installation system.

Lobby / large-format feature wall

Lobby Feature Wall: From Elevation to Panel Map

A reception wall case focused on the view from the entrance. It explains how the elevation, joint rhythm, vein movement, visible returns, panel numbering and installation sequence turn a dramatic slab selection into a wall the site team can actually assemble.

Residential architecture / facade

Bryant Plaza Sintered Stone Facade

An urban facade study where large-format surfaces support a controlled vertical rhythm. The file discusses module logic, colour consistency, elevation coordination, exposed conditions, support-system responsibility and the packing information needed before panels leave the factory.

A good case study should help you make the next decision.

Read the room as a system: substrate, surface, joint, edge, support and access.

02 / How to read these cases

A good case study should help you make the next decision.

Finished photography is useful, but project buyers need more than inspiration. They need to understand why a finish was selected, where joints were accepted, which edges remained visible, whether pieces were supplied as slabs or fabricated components, and how the shipment was divided for installation.

That is why these files combine design intent with application detail. They are not guarantees that one material or thickness suits every project; they are references for the questions that should be resolved before quotation and cutting.

03 / From reference to release

What happens after you send the reference image?

We turn a broad enquiry into a package that can be priced, fabricated, packed and handed to a local installer without hiding the important assumptions.

01
Define the surface job

We list every application separately: horizontal or vertical, dry or wet, interior or exterior, fixed panel or moving furniture face. This prevents a single colour choice from being mistaken for a complete specification.
Output / application schedule and open-question list
02
Confirm the visual direction

We compare reference images with available products, finishes and slab formats, then identify what requires a physical sample, full-slab photograph, translucency test or face-sequence approval.
Output / sample set and product direction
03
Resolve pieces and interfaces

For fabricated scope, the drawings must show finished sizes, openings, edges, returns, mitres, face direction and tolerances. Site dimensions and supporting construction remain clearly assigned.
Output / marked drawings and fabrication responsibility
04
Quote without hidden assumptions

Material, fabrication, packaging and freight are separated. Quantity basis, spare allowance, trade term, destination, unloading expectation and exclusions are written into the quotation.
Output / comparable commercial quotation
05
Release, label and pack

Approved pieces are grouped by room, elevation or installation sequence. Labels, crate lists, edge protection and loading order are planned around how the shipment will be received and distributed on site.
Output / release record, packing list and shipment handover

04 / Continue the specification

Useful before you request a final quotation.

Check application guidance, logistics and ordering information before freezing quantities or requesting fabricated pieces.

05 / Project buyer questions

What project buyers usually need to confirm.

The answers depend on application, destination and fabrication responsibility. These are the questions that prevent a visually attractive selection from becoming an incomplete order.

Are the photographed products exact colour guarantees? +

No. A project photograph is a design reference affected by lighting, camera settings, screen colour and the production batch. We use it to understand the intended direction, then confirm the current product, finish and slab appearance with samples or approval images before an order is released.

What information produces a useful project quotation? +

Send the application, approximate finished sizes or drawings, quantity, preferred product and finish, thickness if known, fabrication expectation, destination, required trade term and target timing. If some information is missing, we can issue a budget direction while clearly marking the assumptions that still need confirmation.

Can Funtek supply slabs and fabricated pieces in the same project? +

Yes, when the scope is separated clearly. Standard slabs may be allocated for local cutting while selected items are fabricated at the factory. The quotation and packing list should identify which party verifies site dimensions, prepares final drawings and accepts installation tolerances.

How do you plan packing for several rooms or elevations? +

We need the site sequence before packing. Pieces can be labelled and grouped by room, floor, elevation or installation phase, with crate lists that help the receiving team locate material without opening every package. Unloading equipment, access limits and storage conditions should be confirmed before the shipment is booked.

Start with drawings, not guesses

Bring us the project behind the picture.

Send plans, elevations, application areas, preferred finishes, approximate quantities, fabrication expectations and destination. We will separate what can be confirmed now from what still needs a sample, drawing or installer decision.
