Compound ordering is a complex topic and appropriate research may be the subject of a long paper. In this format, you can only provide general observations and explain the samples used. Synthesis appeared in the work of the Roman Empire, but it was not decided as a separate order until the early Renaissance. The first person who adds it to the classic order list is theorist Leon Battista Alberti who called for an Italian order. Alberta wrote in his famous paper "Drying in 1485" as follows. "... For this medal, exquisite ions are added instead of those ear for Corinth's richness" Since then all the major Renaissance papers including Serlio, Vignola, Palladio, Scamozzi , Defined and exemplified Composite as a unique order and brought five structured orders.

The order itself is very similar to the Corinthian order, but the final discriminating element of the complex order is the main part of the pillar considered to be the fusion of the ion and the capital of Corinth. However among the classic architects such as Serlio, Vignola, Palladio, Scamozzi, the best name of this order is controversial. It was identified as 'Italian Order', 'Roman Order', 'Latin Order' and of course 'Composite Order'. Since Palladio insisted on the name "Composite" (Italian: Composito), this order is logically in order of Ionic and Collins, so this order has become the usual title of the entire sequence.

Bramante (1444-1514) used a composite order for the second order of the Santa Maria della Pace Roman monastery. Ion order was used for primary. Francesco Borromini (1599-1667) has developed a composite order in San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane (1638) in Rome. There are 16 complex pillars in the church. The load bearing column under the arch has a reverse swirl. At the time, this choice was highly criticized and insisted that the lack of understanding of Bitravia's order caused him to make a decision.
