Before there were condos and skyscrapers the Canadian landscape was filled with forests, fields and meadows and the fieldstones were plentiful. This natural building material was the obvious first choice for the earliest residential homes. The pioneers of the land had to be resourceful in choosing an appropriate building material that would be easy to use and readily available. Field stone offered that type of convenience and was used to great effect. Fieldstone faux rock veneer draws from the same natural textures to create a very traditional stone veneer pattern.

Faux stone veneers come in various shapes and sizes. They are tailored to work with specific designs and can be used to create contemporary or more traditional environments. Fieldstone textures are utilized effectively when creating rustic types of home decor spaces. The traditional look and feel of the stone veneer transforms rooms and home exteriors. Fieldstone is a popular faux stone veneer that can be used to create stone interior walls or outdoors to breath a traditional elegance within a space.

The classic look of fieldstone immediately suggests a traditional design palette. Heavy wooden furniture and cast iron appliances can be combined to form a cohesive room aesthetic. When using fieldstone indoors remember to take into account the size of the stone veneer. Faux stones that are large and have an organic shape can be overbearing when installed in small space. Make sure to give the stone veneer enough space so that it can create an accent without taking over the space. With organic shaped faux stone veneer like fieldstone we have seen great results for outdoor projects and on fireplace facings, both inside and out. It creates an elegant design that reflects the aesthetic of traditional homes.
