提升家居美感的一种流行方法是打造迷人的走道、露台或花园装饰。虽然有些人选择使用砖块或景观美化,但一种越来越流行的趋势是使用石材。以下是我们客户喜欢的两种选择。
石板是一种沉积岩,通常由砂岩和二氧化硅、方解石或铁矿石等矿物结合在一起而成。这种扁平的石头非常适合用作铺路石,常用于人行道、露台和墙壁工程。这种石头还可以以各种方式切割和塑形,从而形成独特的图案。
Flagstone is known and loved for its rich texture in a broad range of colors – browns, grays, gold, and blues. It’s a great choice for a more rustic look, and it preserves a green and earthy element in your landscaped area.
请记住,石板和青石都不是板岩,不应使用,因为它在潮湿时非常滑并且会很快剥落。
Many may not know that bluestone is technically a form of flagstone. This sedimentary rock is formed by the fusing of particles deposited by rivers, oceans, and lakes. It typically has a moderately textured surface. Bluestone comes in bluish and gray shades, but ‘full color’ has other tones mixed in.
Bluestone is sturdier. It comes in natural cleft and select grades. It’s a bit more resilient against elements, making it weather-resistant. Bluestone guarantees a classic look, even among plants and other greenery.
The downside of bluestone? It’s a bit more expensive and has a more formal look.
If you’re still not sure which stone to use for your landscaping project, think of what your stone will be regularly exposed to. If the stone is near a pool, your best bet is to go with bluestone. It’s important to keep in mind that bluestone is a dark-colored stone that retains more heat than lighter-colored flagstones and can be the more expensive option between the two.
说到底,两者都是不错的选择,最终决定可能取决于石材的整体外观。青石的独特颜色在景观中脱颖而出,而中性石板则融入景观之中,成为景观的一部分。
