kétoszlopos

Kétoszlopos is a Hungarian adjective meaning two-column, used to describe objects, elements, or layouts that consist of two vertical columns or two supporting columns. The word is formed from két (two) and oszlop (column) with the suffix -os, yielding a property-related descriptor.

In architecture and decorative contexts, kétoszlopos describes structures or façades that feature two columns, such as a two-column portico, gate surround, or other elements anchored by paired columns. The term signals a bilateral, symmetrical arrangement centered on the two columns.

In typography, publishing and page design, kétoszlopos refers to a two-column page layout, where text (and sometimes images) is divided into two vertical columns. This layout is common in newspapers, journals, and certain books to improve readability and balance visual weight.

In digital interfaces and information design, kétoszlopos describes two-column arrangements of content, for example forms, sidebars, or panels that align labels and inputs or compare items side by side. It is often considered in responsive design, where the two-column structure may reflow for smaller screens.

The term is used across fields to indicate a bilateral, paired-structure principle. Related concepts include oszlop (column) and elrendezés (layout). The form’s exact implementation—architectural, typographic, or digital—depends on the context but retains the core idea of two aligned columns.
