What is "Ionic"?
In architecture, "Ionic" refers to a style of column or its design, known for its elegant and simple features. Ionic columns typically have a tall, slender shape with distinctive scroll-like ornaments at the top, called volutes. This style originated in ancient Greece and is considered more decorative than the simpler Doric style but less elaborate than the Corinthian style. Ionic columns are often used in buildings that aim for a refined and balanced look.
