Stone? We had only unburned bricks, no right angles, several kinds of walls put together and bulging out to rooms. It is always funny to add or redo some furniture, electric work ...
The outside walls are stone, but inside it's a big mess: I never know what color the dust will be when I drill a hole. And I can't even imagine right angles or straight walls. It must be so handy.
Funniest part of it is that for some parts even exists some drawings, some electric work was made by students (friend was teaching electricians), something done by friends...
It is just mess from outside perspective.
My workplaces is like this: Some walls are red brick, others white/yellow brick. I have one random concrete wall. A couple plywood walls. I have yet to find a plasterboard wall.
