How to define layout for Taxonomy lists

What I’m asking is how I can influence the layout that is used when I view multiple items of a custom defined Taxonomy.

For my blogs, I can define a page that is used, which can be set via the Theme General Options.

Who can I influence the layout for other taxonomy listings?

The layout are indeed the same now, as I found the following solution in some other support thread.

I have added this to my function.php of my child theme.

/*
* Function to modify the layout for categories
* 
*/

add_filter('avf_blog_style','avia_change_category_blog_layout', 10, 2); 
function avia_change_category_blog_layout($layout, $context){
if($context == 'archive') $layout = 'blog-grid';
return $layout;
}

However, I would like to know if there another option is to maintain the structure of these archive pages different then via a function.php function.
The page structure is different then my other pages as I don’t use the right sidebar on default.

I know that you can set a page that contains the setup for blogs.
What is the option to define the structure for these archive pages.

I’m aware of that – But How can I arrange the various layouts for the archive items.

Like presenting in a grid, lsit, etc.

I can do this for Blogs but is not clear how to do this for Archives and Taxonomy listings.
