As we enter 2024, the masonry world is evolving. Current trends indicate a preference for neutral colors in exterior designs, with a growing use of eco-friendly materials. Industry professionals are closely monitoring innovations and industry forecasts. Let's explore together what is shaping the field of masonry this year.
Neutral Shades
In terms of exterior cladding, 2024 favors neutral colors to create a timeless and sophisticated aesthetic. These hues bring a subtle elegance while harmonizing perfectly with the surroundings, providing a modern and enduring look to outdoor spaces.
Our renowned Lorado stone is available in Eggshell, a perfectly balanced light shade for a modern and sleek look.
Mid-Century Style
The Mid-Century style, a trend that transcends eras while embodying a perfect fusion of functionality and aesthetics. Characterized by its clean lines, and commitment to simplicity, the Mid-Century style continues to captivate design and architecture enthusiasts.
New Bricks at Rinox
Two new bricks, Oslo and Clayden, join Rinox's Masonry collection in 2024. With an imperfect appearance, they offer a timeless look and reproduce the noble aesthetic of Roman brick. These two additions are available in the new colors: Truffle, Volcano, Caviar, Husky, and Whistler. Explore all the new products and colors of 2024.

Elegance in Curves
For over a year, arches have become a prominent feature in both interior and exterior architecture. Take inspiration from the Maison Référence project in collaboration with Dessin Drummond. For the exterior, the Lotis brick was chosen as the cladding to complement the Mid-Century style of the home's architecture.
As for the indoor fireplace area, the Campagnard thin veneer stone was installed, bringing a warm look to this living room. This choice of interior cladding adds a touch of rustic charm while creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
Aluminum Integration
To create contrasts and dimension in an architectural project, it is interesting to include various types of exterior cladding materials. In 2024, aluminum is a must-have for achieving this effect. For instance, incorporating it into the gables of a house helps define angles and highlight architectural details.
Rialux, a part of the Rinox Group, offers three collections – Tiago with a flat profile, Timberland with a channel profile, and Bolton in a Board & Batten style. These three profiles seamlessly complement various architectural styles.
