6. Columns

Looking at ancient Greek ruins, you could see a crucial factor of Greek aesthetics is the stunning, elaborately built pillars. The Ancient Greeks were great architects. And columns were an essential part of constructing their buildings, which is still apparent in many Greek ruins.

Although Athenian pillars for most modern homes might not be practical toward most modern homes, there are many other methods to integrate pillar motifs into any space. In a living room, try pillars around a fireplace or doorway. Let try a solitary post as a plant stand or to hold a Greek-style bust or sculpture. Thereby, patios and porches may also benefit from column accents.
