About Canvastone:
Our Vision & Team
Canvastone began with a clear vision: to make the elegance of natural stone accessible in ways traditional materials simply couldn’t achieve.
Created by Gökhan Keskin, PhD, Designer and Managing Partner at Buca Interior Solutions, Canvastone was developed to meet the specific needs of the U.S. market—lightweight, refined, customizable, and easy to work with. The goal was simple: bring the feeling of true stone into everyday spaces without the limitations of heavy slabs or complicated installations.
Born from European craftsmanship and global design experience, Canvastone quickly grew into a versatile surface solution embraced by both homeowners and design professionals. Its seamless appearance, fast installation, and flexible applications positioned it as a fresh alternative within modern interiors.
Canvastone is proudly brought to the market through Buca Interior Solutions, our one-stop design and materials studio. Originally established in Turkey and now rooted in Orlando, Buca extends the same commitment to quality, trust, and design excellence—supporting every client with curated materials and expert guidance.
Together, Canvastone and Buca deliver innovation, beauty, and thoughtful design to every project.
Why Canvastone?
Canvastone is not just a material; it is a solution.
We developed our signature flexible stone veneer to eliminate the challenges of traditional marble. By preserving the authentic texture and beauty of natural stone while removing the weight and fragility, we empower designers to go where stone couldn't go before.
- Lightweight & Durable: Perfect for walls, ceilings, and curved surfaces.
- Seamless Installation: Faster application with less structural reinforcement needed.
- European Innovation: Sourced from premium quarries and engineered for modern U.S. standards.
