American House Designs: Popular House Styles In America That You Will Love: American House Styles
What exactly characterizes a house in the United States? Is it the grand federal architecture of New England's cities or the pleasant shingle style of the coast? Tudor rowhouses or Midwest Prairie School dwellings? It turns out that in the twenty-first century, it could be a little bit of everything. Identifying the correct American house style is both easier and more difficult than you may imagine - easier because older homes often fit very clearly into one style and more difficult because the newer a house is, the more blurry the style might be. So, with the assistance of American House Designs, I've put together this very brief introduction to the fundamentals of American house types. It's the bible of American house style, and if you're a house nerd like me, you should have it!
