Local Stone: Dry-Stacked Stratified Rock

A dry-stacked stone wall. The stone is stratified sandstone or schist quarried from the surrounding site, with a warm gray color tinged with rusty brown; the stones are stacked horizontally, with each layer varying in thickness, and the varying depths create distinct shadows on the wall surface; the gaps are very fine and not filled with cement, allowing the dark shadows between the stones to be seen. At the corners, the stones interlock. Avoid: using cultured stone veneers and faux stone panels, cutting the stone into uniform square blocks, filling and smoothing the gaps with cement, using polished and glossy stone surfaces.

一面乾砌的石牆。石材是基地周邊採來的層狀砂岩或片岩,顏色是暖灰帶鏽褐;石塊以水平方向堆疊,每一層的厚度不同,深淺的進出讓牆面有明顯的陰影;縫隙很細而且不填水泥,可以看到石塊之間的黑影。轉角處石塊互相咬合。避免:使用文化石貼片與仿石紋板、把石材切成大小一致的方塊、用水泥把縫填滿抹平、使用拋光與有光澤的石面。
