Spanish term

están marcadas a modo de apilamientos que hacen intervenir expresivamente

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Architecture las superficies de las fachadas est�n marcadas a modo de apilamientos que hacen intervenir expresivamente de manera muy poderosa
The only translation I can find for apilamiento is "pile" of "backup" relating to traffic neither of which seems applicable in this case although I stand to be corrected if anybody could help in this regard. Thanks again.

Esta continuidad ayuda a leer con claridad la necesaria formación de las calles, pero está matizada por un grupo de mecanismos figurativos. Así todas las superficies de las fachadas están marcadas a modo de apilamientos que hacen intervenir expresivamente de manera muy poderosa a los materiales del cerramiento. Las volumetrías contundentes se manifiestan variadas por la localización evidentemente diversa de sus caras, y en los paños que coinciden con la vía principal del nuevo barrio emergen como brotes dispersos y singulares, los prismas coloreados de los balcones.

Please explain whether this is a description of what is actually seen, an architect's rendering, or the description of a painting.
