                                       Co-Owner, Hunter Stone LLC

 

As Co-Owner of Hunter Stone LLC in Haughton, Louisiana, Quentin Hunter brings a rare, multidisciplinary perspective to the architectural stone industry. Straddling the line between design theory and real-world execution, Quentin ensures that every piece of natural and cast stone not only meets aesthetic intent but performs flawlessly in the field.

​

Bridging Design and Construction

The gap between an architect's vision and a contractor's installation can be a primary source of friction in commercial and luxury residential builds. Quentin eliminates this gap. Holding a degree in architecture, a contractor’s license, and LEED AP certification, he evaluates stone procurement through a comprehensive lens. From structural load capabilities to sustainable building practices, his technical guidance helps architects and builders anticipate challenges before they reach the job site.

​

Mastery of Traditional & Advanced Materials

With decades of hands-on and theoretical experience, Quentin specializes in the technical applications of a vast spectrum of architectural masonry. His expertise covers traditional materials—including Oklahoma sandstone, Pennsylvania bluestone, and Lueders buff limestone—as well as cutting-edge, lightweight solutions such as Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC), Cast Limestone, thin slate panels, and stone from other countries.

​

A Tech-Forward Approach to Masonry

Quentin is redefining how architectural stone is specified and visualized. By integrating advanced technology—from AI-driven architectural rendering models to custom-built project management software—he provides clients with unprecedented clarity during the design phase. This technology-first approach allows for precise visual mockups, streamlined communication, and highly accurate material specification.

​

Industry Leadership & Education

Operating alongside his wife and majority owner, Rachel Hunter, Quentin has helped build Hunter Stone into a premier Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB). Beyond procurement, he is a dedicated educator within the architectural community, frequently developing and delivering AIA Health, Safety, and Welfare (HSW) continuing education presentations to empower architects with the latest technical knowledge in stone masonry.
