Plaques And Foundation Stones
Successful foundation stones have a purpose beyond the immediate occasion they record and celebrate. The date of the opening and name of the person involved in the ceremony are important, but over time their relevance fades and what remains is the stone, the quality of the layout and the lettering. Foundation stones should not be a notice written in stone but an object of interest and, ideally, beauty.
