    Quizzical Pursuit
    —The Architecture Puzzler

    Created by Dave Guadagni

    Solution to Last Week's Puzzler
    Architecture Puzzler #46

    Question

    Could you have a tessellated revetment? How would you describe it?

    Answer

    Of course you could. Tessellated refers to something that is formed or arranged in a mosaic pattern, while a revetment is a facing of masonry, usually used to protect an embankment.
     


     

    Okay, got it? Now try this week's Puzzler:
