Italianate Architecture
(Historical Context Statement)
Symmetrical façade
Low pitched hipped or flat roof
Widely overhanging eaves with large decorative brackets
Tall narrow windows, commonly arched or curved above
Elaborated window crowns
One-story entry porch, often supported by square posts with beveled corners
Centrally-placed square tower or cupola
The Italianate style began in England as part of the Picturesque
Movement. As used in the United States, this style generally
followed the informal model of the simple Italian farmhouse, but
was adapted into an indigenous style. This style did not enjoy
the widespread popularity of other Victorian-era styles, and
relatively few Italianate buildings were built.
