Elegance of StoneLeaf – the future of natural stone in interior design
Today, together with the Archideco Designer's Library team, let's dig into one of the most favorite material brands revolutionizing the industry — StoneLeaf. Founded in 2013 by Alexandre and Emmanuel DAHDI, StoneLeaf has brought innovative and eco-friendly stone leaf creations to the forefront of interior design.
What is StoneLeaf?
StoneLeaf combines the beauty and durability of natural stone with the flexibility and ease of modern materials. Extracted from blocks of slate, mica, or marble, StoneLeaf transforms these robust stones into thin, flexible sheets without compromising their inherent strength. This innovative material comes in a vast array of natural colors and textures, opening up endless design possibilities for both residential and commercial spaces.
The Appeal of StoneLeaf
StoneLeaf’s versatility and aesthetic appeal make it a favorite among leading interior designers and homeowners alike. Its unique manufacturing process ensures that each sheet retains the natural hues and textures of the original stone. Available in four distinct finishes—Stoneleaf, Translucent, Metal, and Stick&Stone—StoneLeaf offers a chic, original look that enhances any interior or exterior space.
Eco-Responsibility at the Core
StoneLeaf’s commitment to sustainability is evident at every stage of their production process. They strive to create a positive ecosystem with minimal environmental impact, utilizing 100% recyclable packaging materials and partnering with local ESAT organizations to support the professional integration of disabled adults. By sourcing materials within a 200 km radius of their plant, StoneLeaf also minimizes its carbon footprint.
Endless Applications
The applications of StoneLeaf are virtually limitless. Its flexibility and durability make it ideal for walls, ceilings, furniture, pools, fireplaces, showers, stairs, and even backlit areas. Each sheet is carefully crafted from natural stone blocks, using only a thin layer of stone, which allows for the production of over 200 m² of sheet stone from a single block. This efficiency not only reduces waste but also maximizes the use of raw materials.
A Commitment to Quality
StoneLeaf products are designed to last, with a 10-year guarantee on all their offerings. This assurance of quality, combined with their sustainable practices, creates a virtuous and sustainable model for their customers. StoneLeaf even encourages customers to return materials that are no longer needed, which are then recycled into new products.
Minimized Transport Impact
To further reduce their environmental impact, StoneLeaf is expanding its storage network globally. By having materials available closer to their customers, they significantly cut down on transportation-related carbon emissions.
StoneLeaf represents the perfect blend of tradition and innovation, offering a contemporary solution that respects the environment while providing unparalleled beauty and functionality. Whether used in homes, hotels, or commercial spaces, StoneLeaf’s natural stone leaves are a testament to sustainable luxury in modern design.
Stoneleaf is now also available in Riga, in the unique Archideco Designer's Library (Strēlnieku iela 8/4), where you can not only see and touch it, but also get free advice from experts on how to implement this beautiful material into your project.
