With changes in technology, Personalized monuments are in Trend

Fifty or 60 years ago, most American cemeteries have a conventional tombstone formula — a stone tablet bearing a name, dates of birth and death, and perhaps an epitaph. But, now monument builders no longer apply those formulas.

Monuments are becoming more and more personalized and unique every year. One of the biggest game-changers has been technology as it gives people the ability to design and create their own custom monuments.

Variations in Shapes and Sizes

With the use of modern technology, monuments can be shaped into almost any form imaginable — hearts, shamrocks or, in the case of one of Brannon’s customers, even a grand piano. In addition, computer-aided design tools and developments in sand blasting, laser etching and hand etching now allow intricate designs to be carved into the stone — which means even standard shapes can be customized. Increased globalization has brought new strains and colors of granite to the monument market.

Nowadays customers are shopping for their own memorials also have increased customization.
