Chimney: tall and twisting

A group of brick chimneys on a roof. Several chimney flues are grouped on the same base, each with a different cross-section: square, octagonal, spirally twisted, or with geometric relief, topped with a projecting cap. Their height significantly exceeds the ridge, making them the most prominent elements on the roof. Avoid: making the chimney a single plain square column, having its height lower than the ridge, removing the top cap, making all chimneys in a group identical in shape.

屋頂上一組磚砌煙囪。數支煙囪筒成組立在同一個基座上,每一支的斷面都不同:方形、八角、螺旋扭轉或幾何浮雕,頂端有出挑的帽簷。高度明顯超過屋脊,是屋頂上最顯眼的元素。避免:把煙囪做成單一素面的方柱、高度低於屋脊、拿掉頂端的帽簷、讓一組煙囪的造型完全相同。
