Okay yeah no I'm team caryatid now. Those are pillars/columns worthy of praise!

Tuscan and Doric are too simple while Corinthian and Composite are too complex

Tuscan boar vessel and column supremacy

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Ionic if there is one specific angle from which the pillar is supposed to be seen, Doric if it's supposed to look good from all angles. Tuscan is too minimalist, and Corinthian feels try-hard.

tuscan is boring, doric is like your english essay which originally looked like tuscan but you changed a few words and now its 'good'. Ionic is a masterpiece and had the beauty but also simplicity that it should have. I'm not even gonna comment on corinthian. composite is the ionic for fancy girlies, love it.

Doric looks fucking stupid and I'll die on this hill

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Tuscan I like it simple.

Ionic is the perfect mix of embellishment and practicality.

Ionic just kinda seems like you'd get crappy birds nests in the crevices of it, tbh
