THEORY & MATHEMATICSbeginner
Definition
The opening through which people pass between spaces, typically framed by a door frame. Doorways are thresholds that mark transitions and are often expressed architecturally through moldings, arches, or other details.
Example
The monumental arched doorway of the Pantheon in Rome announces the transition from the exterior portico into the sacred interior chamber.
