About This Design

"It's ionic" architectural order of columns ironic Tote Bag

"It's ionic" architectural order of columns ironic Tote Bag

A quirky design for those in the know, whether they are architects, archaeologists, culture historians, or art lovers: it's 3 column heads of the ionic architectural order, with a wordplay on ironic/ionic. Isn't it ionic? Yes, it is! When the Ancient Greeks constructed temples thousands of years ago, they were very precise in their layouts and measurements for every aspect of these buildings. There were three main architectural "orders" known as: Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. The differences in the styles are most easily recognized in the column capitals (the decoration on top of the columns) and have been used in architecture ever since. The Ionic column capital comprised three parts: the echinus and the abacus (which are proportionately thinner than those on the Doric column capital and usually have carved decoration), and the volute which terminates in eyes.

A tote bag is a tote bag unless there’s something on it to make it special - and that is our logo. It’s made a perfectly lovely tote bag into an amazing walking piece of advertising! I can’t believe how well the printing came out as our logo is quite intricate. I am really impressed with this item and would highly recommend! x
