Here are some tips that would help you incorporate support columns

Support column is an extremely common feature in older houses. While they can be easily replaced with by a steel column, chances are that you may prefer to save that cost. Hence, there is a demand for ideas about how such columns can be incorporated without them actually looking like columns.

·         You can do shelving which involves the creation of shelves around the support column and also be created between multiple columns. If the column is finished in the same material as the shelving, it would appear as if the column has visually disappeared even though it still is there.
·         Another effective and impressive method is by the creating dividing walls. Using a dividing wall, even a partial one, space can be split into two distinct spaces. Since it is larger than the column itself, it acts as an excellent place to bury electrical, create storage. You can even place your television set or your fireplace there if you have one.
·         It can also be used as a vertical interest. You can add a vertical interest to your room which would help tie various different elements together and create a better flow. If you transform it into seating, you can actually make it a focal point. This can be done with a steel column also.
·         Another idea is to use cabinetry design.  While people usually design custom cabinetry around support columns, it is a good idea to design your cabinetry in such a way that it gives the impression that the columns have been intentionally added to enhance the overall function as well as the overall aesthetic appeal of the cabinet.

These are just some ways to use a support column in a way that it does not act as a mere waste of space. Support columns in the right place can add to the utility as well as the overall aesthetic appeal of the space. It gives you an opportunity to use your creativity in order to make something that is useful as well as aesthetically pleasing in your home.  It is definitely something you need to try out if there are support columns in your home.
