columns

Isaac Kremer/ July 3, 2024/ / 0 comments

A column is a supporting pillar consisting of a base, a cylindrical shaft, and a capital, which is the head or top of a column. The most common column styles originated in ancient Greece. In America, columns have played a prominent roll in a number of house styles since the late eighteenth century. Most of the traditional column styles can be distinguished by their capitals.
