Transforming reception areas with custom stone surfaces

Make a lasting first impression in your office or showroom.

Your reception area says more about your business than you might think. Is it making the right impression?

If you're upgrading your office or commercial space, the reception area should be high on your list. It’s the first place clients and visitors see - and it sets the tone for your entire brand. At Pacific Stone, we help New Zealand businesses create stunning, professional reception spaces using premium custom stone surfaces that are built to last.

Why reception design matters
Whether you’re welcoming potential clients, existing customers, or future team members, your reception area plays a key role in shaping their first impression. A thoughtfully designed reception space isn’t just about good looks - it’s about communicating who you are as a business.

From natural stone to engineered surfaces, choosing a durable, stylish benchtop or feature wall can upgrade your space and build instant trust with anyone who walks through your door.

The power of stone in commercial spaces
Stone surfaces offer a combination of form and function that’s hard to beat. Here’s why they’re ideal for reception areas:

• Professional appeal: Stone adds a sense of sophistication and quality that immediately catches the eye.
• Durability: High-traffic areas demand strong materials - stone can handle the knocks, bumps, and daily use with ease.
• Low maintenance: With proper sealing, stone benchtops and feature panels are easy to clean and maintain, perfect for busy commercial environments.
• Versatile design: From sleek modern quartz to rustic textured granite or sintered stone, we offer a wide range of styles to suit any business identity.

Custom craftsmanship to suit your brand
At Pacific Stone, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Our team works closely with you to design and install a bespoke stone solution that aligns with your brand, layout, and vision. Whether it’s a bold, dark reception desk for a law firm or a light, welcoming benchtop for a beauty clinic - we’ve done it all.

Your space, your statement
Your reception area should reflect your professionalism, your personality, and your pride in your business. Custom stone features can do just that - while also adding lasting value to your workspace.
