(Facade) composition Explanation: There are a number of terms used for Fassadengliederung, one of them is facade segmentation which gets the best quality references on the web in my opinion. Reference: http://closterhistory.com/documents/awnings_61-63.pdf |

trim Explanation: The architectural 'trim' is uncountable. https://en.mimi.hu/architecture/trim.html "Trim The framing or edging of openings and other features on the facade of a building or indoors. Trim is usually a different color or material than the adjacent wall. Turret A small tower, usually starting at some distance from the ground, attached to a building such as a castle or fortress." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 59 mins (2017-07-23 18:49:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Apologize; I copied and pasted too much. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2017-07-23 19:12:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Pictures of exterior trim: http://www.front-porch-ideas-and-more.com/exterior-house-tri... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2017-07-23 19:20:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Trim can also be bolder, like the columns in your picture (BTW I saw this house in Berlin). http://www.invitinghome.com/exterior-architectural-products.... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2017-07-23 19:36:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Correction: I didn't see this museum in Essen.
