word of the week: SOFFIT
2011 February 21
SOFFIT: The underside of any architectural element, such as an arch, beam, cornice, eave or even staircase . . .
Pictured to the left is a soffit forming the underside of the balcony in the Garfield Park Fieldhouse’s rotunda. The picture below shows a glimpse of another soffit – the underside of one of the Art Institute’s greatest staircases . . .
