Outdoor Oasis: Create Beautiful Walls And Columns With Hardscape

No landscaping project is complete without functional, complementary hardscaping. Whether you’re designing a patio, swimming pool deck, outdoor family room, garden path, or a terrace, hardscape refers to the permanent structures such as pavers, columns, and walls. When chosen wisely, hardscape connects the surrounding landscaping with existing architecture, providing a transition and focal point as well as balancing design elements. 

MSI’s stacked stone veneers are a perfect finish for most hardscape projects; the rustic stone offers the perfect balance between man-made versatility and nature. Our ledger panels come in pre-arranged sections, so it’s easy to achieve a sophisticated, random design. Ledger panels from MSI also have matching corner pieces available to create a seamless look around those tricky corners.

Try out our Stacked Stone Visualizer, which will demonstrate your various options and help you choose the right one for your own outdoor oasis.

Ground-level landscape lighting accents the three-dimensional nature of Golden White Stacked Stone veneer on this multi-story building. The warm shades of gold, gray, and cream blend into the contemporary design, used on the walls, support columns, and even carried through to an interior wall.

With matching corner pieces, there’s no need to worry about how to handle the right angles in this type of structure. Golden White is also excellent at conforming to curves.
