Waterjet Creation

Some pretty incredible stonework gets created with waterjet equipment.

This installation is at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center ...... part of a new tenant improvement project in anticipation of the grand opening. This piece involved removing a cracked terrazzo floor and replacing it with beautiful natural stone.

This waterject cut stone medallion was produced by Creative Edge. It was installed using the Tuscan Leveling System to provide a "plumb & true" surface by craftsmen from Tiede-Zoeller with LATICRETE System materials.

There are 13 “rings” surrounding the center, 400 pieces of stone with 70 inlaid lights.

This is a very sharp looking project, high-end all the way.
