Columns are an ideal way to add definition to rooms or areas in your home while maintaining a wide, open feel for the space. In an open floor plan, place a pair of columns opposite one another on either side of the room to create a break between two “rooms.” If you have an especially large room, you can even space a series of columns across the center of the room to divide the space. Early columns were constructed of stone, some out of a single piece of stone. Monolithic columns are among the heaviest stones used in architecture.
