There are patterns of installation:
-Blend pattern: when panels are from the same stone but nor necessarily from the same block, and are randomly arranged.
-Side-slip pattern: when the used panels of stone use the same block and are placed by side creating a sequence pattern.
-End Match Pattern: when the panels of stone are inverted and placed above each other
-Book-Match Pattern: one panel next to each other]]> 2022-02-20 23:27:29 UTC https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/cprgjpd60wqo369q/wish/2057744813 SUSTAINABILITY cristinarodriguezc1 https://padlet.com/cristinarodriguezc1/cprgjpd60wqo369q/wish/2057748938 Stone is durable, it can last a lifetime.
