Did roman atriums have furniture or columns in them?
The atrium of a Roman house was a big, airy, noisy room. Much of the household work was done there. Children would be taught, the women would set up their looms and clank away with their weaving, slaves would sew or even prepare vegetables for the cooks in the kitchen, everyone chatting away. However, in the very early morning, it was quiet and reserved and acted as a reception area for the master's clients, if the master were a patron. In this instance at least chairs would be provided. Columns were reserved for the peristyle of the house, which was beyond the atrium and they were used to support the roofing of the peristyle.

The column is one of the most distinctive architectural structures. By including them in your home, you can give your house a flavor that is somewhat unique. Fiberglass columns are a great choice because they are durable and inexpensive. There are several different types of fiberglass columns to choose from. The decision that you make will have a strong effect on the feel of a room in your home.There are two basic types of columns: those inspired by Greek architecture and those inspired by Roman architecture. Among the Greek style fiberglass columns, there are three types. They are known as the Doric, Corinthian, and Ionic styles. Greek columns are usually fluted, meaning that they have channels carved into the main rod of the column. Traditionally speaking, their are twenty-four channels on each column, although this may be changed depending on taste.The Doric column is the oldest and least complicated style of Greek column. The top of the column is saucer shaped. It has a larger width than the rest of the fiberglass column, and it then meets with a box shape on the top. The box is then connected to whatever structure the column is supporting.In contrast to the Doric column, the Corinthian column is the most elegantly decorated and complex type of Greek column. It is also the skinniest. Leaves are carved into the top of the column. Fiberglass columns made in this style are more likely to be expensive, but they are much nicer to look at.Ionic columns, the third type of Greek influenced column, features a carved scroll in the top of the column that curls outward toward the sides.In addition to these three Greek styles, there are two more styles of fiberglass columns. These are influenced by the Romans. The first style is called the Tuscan column. It is similar to the Doric, but it is not fluted and it has no base. This is a good choice for a more minimalist style. The second type is called the composite column. Fiberglass columns made in this way combine characteristics of the Ionic and the Corinthian column.Fiberglass columns are a great way to decorate your home in a way that looks ornate but doesn’t push your budget.

What You Need to Know About Fiberglass Columns?
Fiberglass columns add elegance and architectural interest to a house or commercial building. Columns made of fiberglass are lightweight, are not affected by extremes in weather, and are not damaged by insects. Fiberglass is made up of thin strands of glass combined with plastic to make a strong and durable material allowing columns can be load bearing or non-load bearing. Columns are used for exterior and interior design. There are three parts that make up the entire column, the capital or top, the column itself, and the base. Each component is entirely separate and can be chosen individually to give the desired look. In classic architecture columns fall into one of five distinct styles, or order, that included the capital, column, and base and precise specifications for each order. Today’s architects tend to vary from the traditional orders but it’s beneficial to know a bit about the five distinct styles of columns before deciding on which column to buy. * Tuscan Order column has the least amount of detail and is smooth and simple. * Doric Order is the oldest design and is similar to Tuscan but with more design details and may or may not be fluted, or have grooves, the length of the column. * Ionic Order columns in the classic design will have 24 vertical flutes and it’s capital will have a circular scroll design. * Corinthian Order is the slimmest of columns and has an ornate capital of acanthus leaves. * Composite Order has a tapered shaft and an even more ornate capital than the Corinthian. The versatility of today’s manufacturing allows the buyer to create the desired look by choosing from a variety of designs for each component of the entire column. Fiberglass columns should last thirty years and require little to no maintenance. Columns may come in colors, can be treated with a stone like finish, or may come unfinished for the buyer to paint in the finish of choice. Fiberglass columns are relatively easy to install, are not prohibitively expensive, and will add to the value of any home or commercial building. Fiberglass columns can be found at home improvement stores or ordered online.
