It depends on whether you want to emphasize the columns, or make them recede visually. To make the columns stand out, paint them a contrasting color or leave them white; to make columns less prominent, paint them to match the walls.

You could try tiling them in very tasteful Italian glass tiles- like mosaic tiles. Just a thought?

If you're looking for a job in the finance industry, then it's important to understand insurance and how it - along with other things - contributes to healthy saving accounts balances. Whether you're looking for breakdown cover or wanting to compare home insurance, insurance is one of those things that - when it comes to an accident or something similar - will prevent you from having to scout the market for the best loans to pay off repair/accident fees.
