The Quarry designs were inspired by the remains of a Frankish castle on the Greek island of Paros. The castle was built in the 1200s out of cut marble taken from ancient temples across the island, the marble originating from the island’s renowned quarries. The remains represent an example of “spolia,” a Latin word now used to refer to stones being taken from one building and repurposed into another. This is most evident through the many Grecian columns embedded in the walls, their bases creating distinct circular shapes. Portions of the castle fell into the sea during a landslide in the 18th century, and what remains has now been incorporated into surrounding homes and churches, furthering the cycle of reuse.
