   What style of columns do you want?  Round?  Square?  Smooth?  Fluted? Etc?

   Hi Matt,

   Round columns, maybe fluted.

   Note that they will also be short columns - around 5' - 6' in height. They'll extend between builtin bookcases and an arch. They're part of a transition between a living room and a dining room.

   Personally, if they are smooth, I'd use exterior fiber composite columns.  They paint up real nice, are readily available, and 8' wnes can easily be cut down to 5 or 6'.  An 8" x8' is about $140.  As far as if they are load bearing or not, in your applicatioin, who cares.

   I'd go with wood on the interior - if you decide on cast fiber-cement their factory and shipping point is NC, I think.
