The question
What does a portico look like once it stops being one object?
Traced from a photograph, this curved portico breaks into Corinthian columns, an entablature, a balustrade and a line of chimney stacks. Numbering each part slows the eye down enough to see how they depend on one another.
Round the curve
On a curved front the columns seem to change their spacing as you move. The balustrade above keeps one steady rhythm and ties them back together.
What we kept
The smallest repeated part often carries the whole facade. Here it is the baluster, not the column.
