Door Frames and Broken Pediments

A Neoclassical door. The door itself is a tall, multi-paneled wooden door, painted white; the door frame has simplified pilasters or molded upright frames on both sides, topped by a horizontal architrave, and above that is a triangular pediment—either complete or a broken pediment with a gap at the top, possibly with a small urn-shaped ornament in the center of the gap. The doorknob is brass. Avoid: using a flat door without a frame and pediment, making the pediment disproportionately tall, using Baroque curved pediments, making the door short.

一道新古典的門。門本身是高聳的多格分割木門,漆成白色;門框兩側是簡化的壁柱或帶線腳的直立框,上方是一道水平的楣樑,再上方是一個三角形的山牆——完整的或是頂部斷開留出缺口的斷山牆,缺口中央可能放著一個小的甕形飾。門把是黃銅的。避免:使用沒有框與山牆的平板門、讓山牆的比例過於高聳、使用巴洛克的曲面山牆、把門做得低矮。
