Defining Charleston Style - Doors

Photography Susan SullyPhotos 5Issue July 2022
With front doors opening to porches instead of interior halls or rooms, the Charleston single house offers an unusual entrance sequence that blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces.Whether Georgian, Federal, or Greek Revival, Charleston’s front doors frequently feature broken pediments decorated with dentils and supported by pilasters. Fanlights with intricate muntins are often incorporated, bringing light into the entrance hall and contributing beauty to the streetscape.Defining Charleston Style - DoorsDefining Charleston Style - DoorsDefining Charleston Style - Doors
