“Lithocrete® by Shaw & Sons has a distinctively elegant appearance in stark contrast to
the asphalt pavement used throughout Fox Studios. It helped us create promenades and
plazas, each with a unique character. With the patterning we saw cut into the Lithocrete®,
“Avenue D” has a far richer quality to it, more like cut stone. It has become the studio’s
central gathering point for eating, casual business meetings, and socializing. Using contrasting colors in the Newscorp Logo, Lithocrete® helped create the drama of the building’s
entry. The team at Shaw & Sons helped make this project successful and cost effective.
They had the capability under one roof to fit so perfectly into our design puzzle, that there
really was no other choice but to turn to Shaw & Sons as our contracted partner.”
