Summaries of content, keywords and links generated by algorithms. Thank you smmry.com:

Summary 1: Some of the doors in a building play a special role in creating transitions and maintaining privacy: it may be any of the doors governed by FAMILY OF ENTRANCES, or MAIN ENTRANCE, or THE FLOW THROUGH ROOMS or CORNER DOORS, or NATURAL DOORS AND WINDOWS.

Summary 2: "The 6' 8" rectangular door is such a standard pattern, and is so taken for granted, that it is hard to imagine how strongly it dominates the experience of transition.

Summary 3: There have been times when people were more sensitive to the moment of passage, and made the shape of their doors convey the feeling of transition.

Summary 4: Test the height before you build it, in place - NATURAL DOORS AND WINDOWS.

Summary 5: Build the door frame as part of the structure - FRAMES AS THICKENED EDGES, and make it beautiful with ORNAMENT around the frame.

Summary 6: If there is a door, glaze it, at least partially - SOLID DOORS WITH GLASS..
