I really like the stone foundation found under this timber-frame addition.
The stones are massive… appropriately sized for this project. All are locally sourced sandstone (a nice feature). There is a nice blending of varying shades to be seen between each individual stone, which creates eye-pleasing contrast, and invites further inspection. And, there is a nice horizontal pattern going on with enough “fluidity” in the pattern to keep it from becoming rigid and “blocky”.
Throw in a few arches for a finishing touch… and life is good.
