Talk in detail about the types and evolution of Roman columns

When you mention architectural style, you will first think of ancient Greek architecture. Although it has been traced back for a long time, ancient Greek architecture is indeed more representative. In the ancient Greek period, most of the buildings used were beam-column structures, and the most representative one was the Roman column. Roman columns are indispensable when building villas. How many types of Roman columns are there? Today, the editor will tell you about it.


The early Greek columns were divided into: Doric column, Ionic column and Corinthian column. With the later development, the Tassian column and Tasman column appeared. Mixed column style, so these five types are also called classical five column styles.
