MEDO System | The art of doors since ancient times

The history of doors is one of the meaningful stories of human beings, whether living in groups or alone.

German philosopher Georg Simme said “The bridge as the line between two points, strictly prescribes safety and direction. From the door, however, life flows out of the limitedness of the isolated being-by-yourself, and it flows into the unlimited number of directions in which paths can lead.”

The earliest doors of human caves as entrances were made of pebbles, scaffolding, and animal skins. Before the advent of Western civilization, humans started to use framed openings to welcome their guests. A megalithic tomb was discovered in Ireland, its entrance had a lot of exquisite upright stones with a simple stone lintel on top and a square lintel on top—that square lintel is similar to our ventilated window nowadays.

In the 13th century BC, Greek castles, characterized by a pair of carved stone lions on the lintel, started to usher in the era of decorative entrances. To this day, the influence of ancient Greek civilization on architecture still affects nowadays people.

At the end of the 18th century, individuals are eventually no longer restrained by Puritanism. Doors became an increasingly important part of American homes Georgian, Federal and Greek Revivalists prided themselves on doorways with pediments, porches, columns, pilasters, side windows, fan windows, and balconies. During the era of Victorian, it led to a new path of curved entry hallways, architectural mouldings and decorations. In fact, the door is not only a passage, it plays a more important role. A clear and well-defined entrance to a building is an essential variable in the concept of architecture since it reveals the uniqueness and meaning of the building greater than other architectural elements. 

A superior door will directly attract or protect visitors. The house is the user’s castle and the door is his shield; some sing praises and some chant in a low voice.
