Our Mission:

It is Stone Source's mission to provide architects and designers with a curated selection of materials, educate them to the degree that they are interested and ensure the success of their projects.

In providing architects and designers with a curated selection of materials, we review thousands of products each year, and then select only the handful that we believe is best for our clientele. Whether it be the whitest marble with the most balanced veining, or the most innovative porcelain tile by renowned designers. We search for and offer materials at all price points, and design and develop products to meet specific needs. We stock hundreds of materials in the U.S. for immediate availability and have thousands more available for special order.

We view material education as an extremely important part of the design process, and we do all we can to make this easy for our clients. Our showrooms, website and CEU courses—and even our sample labeling—are all designed to ensure that our clients know what to expect with every material. We also aim to provide information they can share with their clients, with the goal of making sure the end client is happy with their materials.
