Handcrafted touches like arches, inlays, and patterned brickwork are making a comeback as clients want something unique.

These type of work showcases real craftsmanship and sets projects apart. They are classy and stands the test of time.
But these are time-consuming, costly, and not every mason has the patience or skill for fine detailing.

What do you think of the artisan/custom detailing comeback?
 
Year of experience and passion for the work will show when the work is done. I've met so many great masons and always in awe of how much dedication can bring art to detailing.
 
You are right! this kind of work can be time consuming and expensive. Thanks to prefab masonry panels and laser cutting, even crews without old school folks can now take on complex designs more easily.
