Nice example of split arched support beam - perhaps we could do something like this for the garage front gable if we stick with the principal idea for the main entrance (i.e. if we decide not to use an arch for the main entrance). Alternatively, we could use an arch in both places for continuity.

Don't like this style of horizontal cross beam with triangular braces - it "closes off" the space too much

Principal idea for 124 main entrance: overall configuration of columns and horizontal braces (although may want to not have the front horizontal if possible), low support piers for main columns, 4-post main columns, wood plank underside of roof, wall of windows mirroring portico shape.

Vertical brackets supporting roof gable - don't like this look

Arched frame with curved window inside - very nice but not sure I want to go in this direction given we're trying to get rid of the circular design elements on the house
