VICTORIAN The Victorian style of American architecture spanned
from about 1860-1900. During that period, builders
and architects developed several variations of overlapping
architectural styles, with Gothic and Queen Anne being the
most predominant. Traditional Victorian rooms featured
tall ceilings which called for larger mouldings, often
combined with decorative blocks.
Todays Victorian home represents this same ornate and
grand design with distinctive architectural elements like
asymmetrical facades, steep gabled roofs, wrap-around
porches, and other fanciful details such as decorative
brackets and spindle work. Interiors feature fireplaces with
heavy mantels, elaborate moulding combinations and doors
with applied mouldings and pediments. The Victorian is
rich with history and allows for a variety of distinctive and
elegant touches.
