Octagon House, Historic residential building in Columbus, United States.
The Octagon House features eight symmetrical sides with large windows, detailed woodwork, and a central staircase leading to upper floor rooms.
Built during the architectural movement inspired by Orson Squire Fowler's 1848 publication, this house represents the mid-19th century residential design innovations.
The structure exemplifies the American architectural experimentation period when designers sought new forms for single-family residences beyond traditional rectangular layouts.
Located in Columbus, Georgia, the house maintains its original floor plan with multiple entrances and a layout that maximizes natural light throughout.
This eight-sided residence belongs to a select group of 68 octagon houses listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
