2. INTRODUCTION
An architectural style is defined as” a set of structural design
features that makes one type of building different from
others”.
o Traditional: customs of habits established in the
past; traditional architecture is usually related to a
period of history
o Contemporary: current style; not related to a specific
period or tradition; they are part of the times and
customs of the period in which they are built
Understanding the basic characteristics of architectural styles is
a useful way to begin seeing buildings more critically.
Such an understanding also helps in describing a building, in
determining its age, or in assessing its architectural value when
compared with other buildings of the same style.

- arches, quoins and belt courses often relieve rusticated stone
finishes
- in addition to the openings, the semi-circular or round arch is used as
decoration to enrich corbel tables along the eaves and at belt
courses
Especially in Richardsonian Romanesque the effect depends upon a
robust use of mass and scale rather than decoration
-Richardsonian Romanesque buildings employ very broad arches,
varieties of stone colour, texture and contrasting rhythm
- in tall buildings, a number of storeys with straight topped
windows may be grouped in enormous arched openings
distinguished by the use of typically Romanesque motifs, including the
round arch and decorative patterns formed by chevrons and

K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 11
12. Late Gothic Revival
Characteristics
- the overall effect is usually more subdued and
simpler than High Victorian Gothic - silhouettes are simpler…
- in churches there could be increased use of flat surfaces and a
greater horizontal tendency of elements…….

flamboyant Victorian Gothic architectureof the late 19th century
gave way in the early1900s to a smoother and more subdued style
The source for detailing came from the English Perpendicular
Gothic of the 15th century.
In domestic architecture the detail sources were generally from 16th
century Tudor (4 centered arch) and Elizabethan traditions
K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 12
13. Chicago School
Characteristics
the skeletal construction is expressed through flat
roofs, straight fronts, and regular window
arrangement
- windows are normally rectangular and the area
of glass can exceed the solid wall material
- there can be a balance between the vertical and
horizontal emphasis of the windows and walls
- in its severest form, detailing is non-existent or
clearly subordinate to the structural and window
pattern
Notable among these Chicago architects was Louis Sullivan
(1856-1924) who developed a more ornate, powerful high-rise
vocabulary with classical overtones, called Sullivanesque.
Beginnings of the modern skyscraper
- when used, ornament can take the form of classical,
Gothic, Romanesque, Renaissance, Sullivanesque or
Art Nouveau decoration
- terra cotta or plaster is often used for low-relief
sculptural ornamentation in cornices, spandrels,
doorways and labels
- in buildings influenced by Louis Sullivan there is a
vertical emphasis and an underlying classical composition
with ground floor as base, top floors as capital and the
middle storeys as the shaft of a grand column
- in Sullivan-inspired buildings the cornice is elaborately
detailed and boldly projecting
- Sullivanesque detailing is naturalistic or stylized foliage
design, predominating in lacy repeating motifs Schematic

14. Prairie School
Characteristics
the skeletal construction is expressed through flat roofs,
straight fronts, and regular window arrangement
- windows are normally rectangular and the area of glass can
exceed the solid wall material

emphasis of the window the emphasis of the style is on the
horizontal
- fireplace and hearth are focal points of the plan;
main rooms radiate from the fireplace
- low-pitched roofs extend far over the walls with
very wide eaves
- windows are frequently casement type and grouped
to form horizontal bands
- dark wooden strips also frequently emphasize the
horizontal
- chimneys are large and low
- buildings are frequently of wood frame covered
with stucco, but brick is also used
- geometric designs are used in windows and for
interior fixtures Schematics and walls
- in its severest form, detailing is non-existent or clearly
subordinate to the structural and window pattern
History
The Prairie School, or Style, evolved around the turn of the
century in the work of Chicago architect Frank Lloyd Wright (1869-
1959).
An emphasis on horizontal lines, low proportions, gently
sloping roofs and sheltering overhangs.
The influences of Japanese architecture and the Arts and
Crafts movement are found in the style, both of which are noted
The style was most commonly used for houses but was also
employed for apartments, commercial and industrial Buildings..
K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 14
16. Georgian Revival
Characteristics
- examples most faithful to the Georgian Revival arerectangular in plan
with strictly symmetrical façades
- wood siding on wood frame construction or red brick are common
building materials
- roofs can be hipped or even gambrel-shaped eaves are frequently
detailed like a classical cornice
- the central portion of the façade may project and have a pediment,
with or without pilasters in ambitious designs a portico can have
free-standing columns
- Palladian windows are often used as a focal point
- windows can have either flat or round heads
•Early 20th century architectural styles, the Georgian Revival
attempted simplicity to architecture after the exuberant styles of the
late 19th century.
•The design and detailing were more refined and complex than
•The earlier Georgian style of the Red River Settlement era. Classical
elements and detailing were more pronounced
Promoted by the well-known New York architectural firm of McKim,
• Although elements of the style can be found on large buildings
•Most frequently used for smaller buildings such as houses, small
offices, apartments and, sometimes churches.
K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 16
17. Tudor Revival
Characteristics
- irregular footprints and asymmetrical facades - varied rooflines,
often steeply pitched, with dormers and gables

are often brick and stone, sometimes with slate roofs
- later versions are more likely frame buildings with areas of stucco,
brick, and half timber veneer
- chimneys are often prominently located and externally-expressed
- windows may have multiple panes, with a range of sizes and
shapes of window opening in a single house.
- windows may be casements (opening on hinges) but Manitoba
examples are more
Used almost exclusively for domestic architecture,the Tudor Revival
style was most popular in Manitoba in the late teens through the
1920s.
In contrast to the Georgian Revival, the style is characterized by
asymmetrical plans and massing, and the details are drawn from the
domestic architecture of the Tudor, Elizabethan and Jacobean eras in
England
wattle-and-daub or brick nogging.
Earlier examples are often quite grand, but by the late teens the
style—often called “Stockbroker Tudor”—was very popular in
burgeoning middle-class suburbs. Tudor Revival houses range from
modest cottages to mansions.
Although the style was ousted by modernism in the mid-century period,
elements have again begun finding their way into suburban
K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 17
19. Bungalow
Characteristics
a low-profile box, 1 or 1 1/2 storeys high - there is a mixing of inside
and outside spaces:
verandahs held within the body of the house by the sweeping roof
and rooms projecting outside the body in porches or bay windows
- roof is a low-pitched gable with broad eaves
- a smaller low-pitched gable frequently covers a front porch
What is commonly called the Bungalow style is the combination of a
building type and a design movement.
Strictly a residential style, the bungalow finds its roots as a 'bangala',
the typical one-storey native dwelling found in British Bengal.
Transported to Britain, it was influenced by the Arts and
Crafts movement, which placed emphasis on the natural or "honest"
expression of material and construction.
- shed-roofed dormers are also common
- the simple structural elements are clearly
shown with rafters, roof brackets, ridge
beams and purlins extending beyond the
walls and roof and painted to contrast with
the walls
- porches frequently have a battered base
or porch piers
- exterior finish materials are wood
shingles, stucco or brick
- chimneys are sometimes massive and can
be of cobblestone or rough-faced brick
Schematic

-the emphasis of the style is on the smooth cube with hard-edged, low-
relief ornament
- geometric form is often emphasized by setbacks at the roof line
- straight-headed windows are arranged in bays to give a vertical
emphasis
- exotic and geometric carved decoration is found around doors
•It was closely associated with the Art Moderne style. Both were part of
the Modern movement which rejected historical eclecticism.
K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 20
21. Art Moderne
Art Moderne was part of the Modern movement and the rejection of
historical styles. While the style is an economical one
Characteristics
usually asymmetrical, the buildings are noted for
flat roofs and rounded corners
- a strong focus is often placed on a large wraparound window
- wall finishes are usually smooth with minimal decoration…..
- speed and movement are suggested with horizontal rows of windows
or decorative bands…..
- if decoration is used, it is usually limited to carved panels by doors or
windows or bands with low-relief carving…..
- the modernity of the style is stressed by the new materials: glass
blocks for windows and aluminium or stainless steel trim for windows,
doors and railings Schematic…
K.KEDHEEWARAN M.Arch 21
22. INTERNATIONAL
Buildings were to be rational and scientific in the organization of the
plan, the arrangement of the façade and the massing of the building
parts
Characteristics
the absence of ornament and attention to the creation of volume
(usually rectangular) are important hallmarks of the style
- roofs are flat
- construction is normally of steel frame or reinforced concrete
- curtain walls of glass or prefabricated parts hang from this frame
- balconies and upper floors are sometimes cantilevered
- the wall surfaces can range from smooth and uniform to a precise
regular three-dimensional arrangement of parts
- openings are often flush with the exterior wall, articulated only by a
change in sheathing materials
- the approach led by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe,called Miesian,
emphasized the rectangular form, a clear articulation of the grid frame,
and a precise regularity of a modular pattern established by the grid
- if asymmetrical, the design is still a balanced composition and is
frequently placed dramatically within a landscape
