The atrium of a Roman house was a big, airy, noisy room. Much of the household work was done there. Children would be taught, the women would set up their looms and clank away with their weaving, slaves would sew or even prepare vegetables for the cooks in the kitchen, everyone chatting away. However, in the very early morning, it was quiet and reserved and acted as a reception area for the master's clients, if the master were a patron. In this instance at least chairs would be provided. Columns were reserved for the peristyle of the house, which was beyond the atrium and they were used to support the roofing of the peristyle.
