Al Diriyah – Split Stone
Al Diriyah – Split Stone is a sculpted Microtadelakt finish, inspired by the layered stone formations of Wadi Hanifa and the terrain surrounding Riyadh’s JAX District. This handcrafted surface recreates the raw, stratified character of natural rock through polished lime textures and artisan-carved detailing. First featured at The Yard Showroom and later at the Mohammed Bin Salman Calligraphy Museum, the finish pays homage to Diriyah’s rich geological and architectural legacy.
Aesthetic Opportunities
Al Diriyah is suited to spaces that celebrate regional character and cultural depth. Ideal for museums, boutique hotels, and curated interiors, it balances historic texture with seamless execution—bringing the rawness of the desert canyon into contemporary design narratives.
