Travertine facades
One of the most luxurious and practical ways of facing an architectural structure, of course, is the travertine finish. Its rich appearance, many types of processing and strength characteristics make it one of the most popular materials around the world. The antiquity and grace of this stone allows you to give any structure a grandiose appearance.
Travertine is a natural stone whose formation originates from the transition from limestone to marble. Due to this, travertine has properties inherent in both limestone and marble.
