Northern post mediaeval English looks like mine. Which makes sense.

Can anyone read any of this?

each category could have better, more distinct examples. most of those shown are already semi-mixed styles found in common houses

Architecture is the only art form you can enjoy going to the store to buy milk or a newspaper. It's all around us. Just look around. >

I've lived half my life on either side of the pond and I can say America has a lot of great architecture to be proud of.

Jesus mine is a bungalo from 1935 that looks almost exactly like the front gabled roof in the Craftsman block. I'll post a picture later.

As a professor of architecture design and history, 80% of labels/dates are inaccurate - they're more descriptive than categorical.

They forgot the saltbox house from the midatlantic of the revolutionary war era. They're all over PA and southern NJ.

I hope there's a special hell for architects who don't put doors on the master bathroom. Why are there no doors?! Dumb.

I stand corrected, thank you I didn't see it.

I really like those southern plantation style homes. White with black shutters. I guess that Greek revival is closest.

Also would be best to see ones for other countries/regions

You can literally buy a house in my hometown for less than $10,000. It may not be very nice, but it's an option!

Love browsing USA though google earth and looking at local architecture. "Just like in the movies".

Christmas season, I go w/ my son (& if I'm making the mistake of dating anyone, them too), to go look at the lights in the rich district.>>

Then we go home & remind ourselves that those ppl might have bigger houses, but we have better friends. So who's richer?

I'm not saying it's impossible but certainly fewer people are able to make purchases for a home like in the past.

I love A frames so much, wish they were more popular.

If you like a shady garden it may be ok
Misterdruglicious
I really dont like them, I hate the whole hat meets head, where does the roof start, from the floor, thats just no
Kuroketto
"How big do you want the roof to be ?" "Yes"
aolyahooaltavista
I live in a “modified” A frame design. Basically imagine an A frame set on top of a conventional 1st floor. It’s great. Ceiling 40 feet high
aolyahooaltavista
It was built this way because we get a shitload of snow so having a steep roof to shed it is super helpful, but can have real rooms.
anyofmany
they only work for a very specific size- that is why a lot cottages have this shape

I also love them but I feel like there's a lot of wasted space towards the edges

can't avoid seeing A-frames and Chalets. Thruthe Southwest, I can say the same about Ranches. I settled on something comfortable, for now

They are extremely dangerous for construction workers/roofers. The worst type really.
aolyahooaltavista
Also, a ton use spiral stairs to access the loft. Really easy to take a nasty fall on those.

No split-level. That fucking abomination to architecture is everywhere in the upper Midwest.
whatsisname
Yeah I noticed that was missing as well. Definitely an abomination.
ZebraCockSandwich
I really like the interior way a split level works. but the exterior is NEVER variable, and looks terrible!
cronkey
I mean, I live in a back split. Looks pretty different from a side split from the street.
ZebraCockSandwich
oh hey thats actually not bad! much better than the side split looks-wise.
Daarst
Might be where I live (northern climate) but needing to walk through the entry way to go between levels sucks pretty bad, lots of wet socks>
ZebraCockSandwich
We had that exact style when I was a kid, but it was in Arizona so that never posed an issue lol
Daarst
> from stepping in melted snow. The entryways are usually tiny on a split level as well, so coats/shoes/etc... are a pain to deal with.
cronkey
To each his own, I suppose.
Daarst
The only beneficial thing about a split-level is that they're cheap to construct. Which is why you see them in new developments where a >>

cronkey
That may be the case in some circumstances - mine was built in 68, has a lot of character. Agree to disagree, I suppose. Have a good day!
