\"Popular<\/a>Architectural columns are essential to help provide structural support to a second-floor balcony, porch roof, and other additions that beautify your home. They can boost your home\u2019s curb appeal and make it distinctive. The right column for your home will depend on many factors, including the front porch style of your home design. Architectural columns are often used on the home exterior and tend to offer structural support in addition to a design style. They are used in many exterior designs, including classic ranch architecture designs. When these architectural columns are used for interior beautification, they are exclusively for visual appeal and rarely structural.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a closer look at the popular styles of architectural columns. Architectural columns can be customised into different shapes but come under two common styles \u2014 round and square architectural columns.<\/p>\n

Round Architectural Columns<\/h2>\n

Round columns can add a distinctive and gripping look to your home\u2019s exterior. They render load-bearing structural support and can be ornamental. So they can provide support for your home\u2019s exterior design, as well as augment and tie the look together.<\/p>\n

Round architectural columns are available in the following four styles:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Plain style
\n\u2022 Fluted style
\n\u2022 Plain or fluted style with tapering of the upper column
\n\u2022 Plain or fluted style without tapering of the upper column<\/p>\n

Per the design of your home, you can either have plain or fluted columns that maintain the same circumference from top to bottom. Alternatively, get a more classic tapered look wherein the top two-thirds of the column slightly taper in so that it gets narrower at the column\u2019s top than the base.<\/p>\n

Square Architectural Columns<\/h2>\n

Square columns <\/a>can provide load-bearing structural support and a fascinating look to your home\u2019s exterior. They can be plain, square columns without extras. Furthermore, square columns can also be fluted, lending the column a ridged look and some added texture. They can also have recessed or applied panels.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Applied Panels: A square architectural column with applied panels has moulding or panelling applied to it to build a new look or imitate another material. For instance, a square column with applied panelling can resemble wood without all the maintenance hassles that accompany using actual wood.
\n\u2022 Recessed Panels: A square architectural column with recessed panels comes with an inherent panel, slightly depressed on each side of the column.<\/p>\n

Interior Architectural Columns<\/h2>\n

Do you notice columns inside the home? They are used exclusively for visual appeal and are rarely used as a structural element. Interior columns mimic the styles of the exterior columns, so they are round or square with plain, fluted, or tapered styles matching your home\u2019s design. The difference between interior and exterior columns is in their load-bearing ability. As interior columns are not meant for load-bearing, they are made of drywall, whereas exterior columns are made of many robust materials.<\/p>\n

Material for Building Architectural Columns<\/h2>\n

Architectural columns are made of robust materials, such as concrete, stone, block, brick, timber, and steel, which have excellent compressive strength.<\/p>\n
