We have the best team, and it is nice to be recognized with a Pinnacle Award of Excellence from the Natural Stone Institute. This project pushed our limits and emboldened our pursuits, and is a showcase of the natural beauty of our beloved Tennessee Pink Marble in Light Rose and the thoughtful creativity of Ennead Architecture's Billy Erhard. Great working with the team at Clark Construction, what a feat!
