Natural Stone's Rough Surface: Split, Not Cut

A piece of natural stone with a rough finish. The stone is warm-toned sandstone or limestone, with colors ranging from ochre yellow to brown; the surface is not a ground flat plane, but a rough, split or chiseled surface, with obvious unevenness and tool marks; the edges are irregular. It is used on a low table, a countertop, or a low wall, with significant thickness. The stone absorbs light, creating many small, fragmented shadows under illumination. Avoid: using polished and honed smooth stone, using high-contrast white marble, cutting edges into perfect right angles, using stone-pattern printed imitation stone.

一塊粗面加工的天然石。石材是暖色的砂岩或石灰岩,顏色是赭黃到褐;表面不是研磨的平面,而是劈裂或鑿出來的粗糙面,有明顯的凹凸與工具痕跡;邊緣不規則。它用在一張矮几、一個檯面或一段矮牆上,厚度很大。石頭吸光,在光下有大量細碎陰影。避免:使用拋光與珩磨的平滑石材、使用高對比的白色大理石、把邊緣切成完美的直角、使用石紋印刷的仿石材。
