Imagine a home in a rural setting with cows roaming free around your boundless property, while you look out over the ocean from your window. In this Werri Beach home, it’s a dream come true and it was achieved with the use of Baines Masonry StoneFace™ Blocks.

The Werri Beach home is an architecturally designed building with a focus on sustainability located on the headlands of Werri Beach, NSW. It has extra thick, highly insulated walls and retaining walls supplied by Baines Masonry. The walls designs ensure it’s cool during summer and warm during winter. The retaining walls frame the rural landscape providing structural support and breaks against the ocean wind.

StoneFace™ is an innovative new concept in architectural masonry which draws inspiration from the Australian landscape and Australian heritage buildings to create a unique and eye-catching stone finish.

Developed by the team at Baines Masonry, a system was created where a reconstituted stone face finish is attached to the masonry block during the manufacturing process, creating a clean and stable finish that lends itself to a variety of uses.

Some of the practical applications of the StoneFace™ block include:

• Feature Walls
• Retaining Walls | Steel and concrete reinforced cantilever Segmental, using the EarthWorks™ retainers
• Fences
• Thin Bed Mortar System
• Structural and Non-Structural
• Commercial and Domestic construction
