Natural stone has been the material of choice for high end homes for hundreds of years. The rich colors and textures of natural stone make is a gorgeous complement to any landscape. However, natural stone, by its very nature, is difficult to install and engineer due to its inconsistent dimensions.

That’s where Rosetta Hardscapes steps in. Rosetta is a complete line of hardscape solutions that combine the rugged attractiveness of natural stone with the dimensional consistency and engineered benefits of precast concrete. Rosetta is the solution you’ve been waiting for!

Rosetta is cast in molds taken from actual weathered stone, giving it a rich, textured surface that captures the look and feel of nature in every block. Manufactured in the Pittsburgh area, Rosetta blocks feature multiple coloring options that compliment the natural stone and soil hues of our area, allowing walls to appear as though they were born, rather than built.

With Rosetta, you have design flexibility to create a truly unique hardscape for your home. From the large scale Outcropping Collection, to the smaller Belvedere Collection—you can create retaining walls, seat walls, outdoor kitchens, patios, seat walls,  fire pits, outdoor kitchens and much more. And with the Rosetta Step Collection, you can create gorgeous staircases with a consistent rise that is safe and comfortable for pedestrians.

The diverse products available from the Rosetta lines give you endless options to create a landscape that will take your breath away. The R.I. Lampus Company manufactures these Rosetta lines in the Pittsburgh area:
