design throughout time : groves

circles + groves + stacks are three pure forms that are prevalent throughout time in design.  they can be found in their singular form, but are most likely found paired with one or the other.  as we learned, groves represent groups of trees/people, reaching vertical.  this timeless form is shown a variety of ways, and used for both  structural and decorative purposes.  here are some examples of this basic form shown throughout time, by ways of the column:

egyptian columns

greek columns

italian renaissance columns

modern columns

futuristic columns
