Describes the sculptural style of a node tagged with man_made=column

Values

The value of this tag follows the Any tags you like scheme, but first identify common values on taginfo before creating a new one

Values should follow the standard OSM syntax (e.g. column:style=tuscan)

Values should not describe the architectural time period/historical style (e.g. column:style=roman) of the column. The column:architecture=* key should be used instead

Example Values

• column:style=tuscan - Tuscan architectural style
• column:style=doric - Doric architectural style
• column:style=ionic - Ionic architectural style
• column:style=corinthian - Corinthian architectural style
• column:style=composite - Composite architectural style

In Combination with column:architecture=*

This table shows examples of column:style=* and column:architecture=* pairings, as well as which column:architecture=* value is the default for each column:style=* value when no column:architecture=* is provided

A brief description (from someone that knows very little about columns & historical architecture) as well as an example image is provided for some cases

Example Value of column:style=*	column:architecture=roman	column:architecture=ancient_greek
column:style=tuscan	Smooth surface along the shaft/trunk, with a capital that is more triangular/sharply meets the abacus	Smooth surface along the shaft/trunk, with a capital that is rounded when meeting the abacus ancient_greek is the default column:architecture=* value for column:style=tuscan, when none is provided
column:style=doric	Long indentations/ridges along the shaft/trunk, with a capital that is more triangular/sharply meets the abacus	Long indentations/ridges along the shaft/trunk, with a capital that is rounded when meeting the abacus Error creating thumbnail: ancient_greek is the default column:architecture=* value for column:style=doric, when none is provided
column:style=ionic		Long indentations/ridges along the shaft/trunk, with a folded spiral capital Error creating thumbnail: ancient_greek is the default column:architecture=* value for column:style=ionic, when none is provided
column:style=corinthian		Long indentations/ridges along the shaft/trunk, with an intricate palm leaf design as the capital Error creating thumbnail: ancient_greek is the default column:architecture=* value for column:style=corinthian, when none is provided
column:style=composite	Long indentations/ridges along the shaft/trunk, with an intricate palm leaf design (similar to Corinthian) topped by a folded spiral (similar to Ionic) as the capital Error creating thumbnail: roman is the default column:architecture=* value for column:style=composite, when none is provided
