Gray devised a columnar grid in relation to the existing basement of the building, but varied the expression of each column according to it's local condition. 
Unlike Le Corbusier, Gray actually rejected the separation of walls and columns which inherent to the free plan. So she reduced the number of free-standing columns to two. one in the entry foyer and another one is in her bedroom.
But in her house these free-standing columns appear to be isolated element rather than component of a system. For example, she attached a pivoting mirror to the bedroom's free-standing column , making that structure member a function component of the dressing area.
