SplinesWe have now looked at every nook and cranny of the complete <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/IonicOrder?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IonicOrder</a> in microscopic detail.<br> <br> Here is one more look at the underside of the <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ovolo?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ovolo</a> to revel in the splendor before we move on to the macro level, the first step of which is arranging columns in a row to create a <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/colonnade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#colonnade</a> according to spacing rules known as <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/intercolumniation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#intercolumniation</a>.<br> <br> Colonnades need not be straight and can follow arcs or other (preferably loose) sweeping curves.<br> <br> As mentioned in <a href="https://pixelfed.social/p/Splines/790357912719769731" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pixelfed.social/p/Splines/790357912719769731</a>, a <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pedestal?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pedestal</a> is always optional.<br> <br> Greek designers designed the Ionic Order with full columns. The Romans introduced half columns on surfaces of walls, with or without arches. Multiple columns with arches, whether in series or in parallel, are called <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/arcades?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arcades</a>.<br> <br> The rules for <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/arcade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arcade</a> intercolumniation are different from those for simple intercolumniation, varying even by whether pedestals are present or not.

Close <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/planarHoles?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#planarHoles</a> on both ends to get an <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/airtight?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#airtight</a> solid.<br> <br> Then draw a sphere at the center of the top circle using the same radius as the circle, and perform a <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/booleanUnion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#booleanUnion</a> between the sphere and the flute body.<br> <br> If you want a round bottom for the flute, repeat the sphere at the center of the larger circle using the same radius (15.0 or 15.0728) and perform another boolean union to get one flute.<br> <br> Switch to the top view and make 24 copies of the flute (including the original) centered at the column axis and <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/group?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#group</a> the 24 flutes.<br> <br> Finally, perform a <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/booleanDifference?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#booleanDifference</a> with the flutes group on a copy of the solid <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/unadornedShaft?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unadornedShaft</a> to get a fluted variant.<br> <br> The result is a column shaft with flutes carved out. Save the flutes separately for future reuse.<br> <br> This concludes the entire <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/IonicOrder?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IonicOrder</a>, including all <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/decorativeElements?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#decorativeElements</a>.<br> <br> Now we pause and reflect: The whole exercise seemed like one of <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> and <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sculpture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sculpture</a>. Where is the <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/architecture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#architecture</a> in all of this?<br> <br> Without a ceiling or a roof, there is no building. Without additional columns or walls, there is no ceiling. So, while we have completed the Ionic Order itself, we only have the first <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/buildingBlock?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#buildingBlock</a> — a single column.<br> <br> Next step is to repeat the columns to create a <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/colonnade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#colonnade</a>, which together with supporting walls or additional colonnades can support a ceiling.<br> <br> Just like with everything else in design, there are rules of proportion for <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/intercolumniation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#intercolumniation</a>, or space between columns.
