Stone Column: Stone reflections of classic architecture
In this issue of Stone World, our cover story features Gaillardia Golf & Country Club in Oklahoma City, OK. And to achieve the goals of the project, the design and specifications were an interesting blend of classical architecture ideals and modern construction techniques.
The design objective for the project was to resemble the rural chateaus of 16th and 17th century France. To replicate the soft, beige tones of French limestone, the majority of the stonework at Gaillardia is comprised of Tulsa Grey Taupe limestone, quarried locally in Oklahoma.
