| Quoins, Stucco and Shutter, Broad Street, Charleston, SC © Doug Hickok This visual snippet of the corner of a 19th century commercial building on Broad Street shows a few architectural elements typically found in Charleston. Many structures are constructed of locally made brick, often in a Flemish bond pattern, smoothed over with stucco. In this image, stucco quoins, made to look like quarried stones, and a stucco wall, combine with a wooden shutter and an iron clasp to form a vignette reminiscent of the color of mint juleps or mint chocolate chip ice cream. |

ReplyDelete...as cool as mint flavoured ice cream! I guess the grander indigenous dwellings in Ireland share a preference for stucco quoins...wish we had the same weather! But enough moans I love the sympathetic colours.
