9 French Recognizable by its double-pitched, hipped or gable roof with eaves that typically flare upwards and tall, narrow window and door openings Most homes have strong vertical proportion that comes from the steeply sloped hip roof A square form is common, with later homes containing additions to the sides which can create symmetrical or asymmetrical layouts Derivatives Include: French Norman, French Provincial, and Chateau

10 Texas Regional Vernacular Seeks to define a more regional architecture that utilizes elements and materials which represent its heritage Usually one story and most commonly clad in Texas limestone Features of this style at first glance are wide porches mostly wrapping around the main body of the house and large roof overhangs that suit warm climates

11 Tudor Usually clad in brick, stone, or light colored stucco which are commonly laid in indicate patterns that add textural interest Forms are asymmetrical and defined by very steep crossing gabled roofs with at least one prominent front facing gable Large, elaborate chimneys with multiple flues are commonly found in prominent locations on the front or side of the home

13 Modern Typically feature heavy use of material such as glass, concrete, and steel Most layouts feature open floor plans that are facilitated by large doorways and high ceilings Sliding glass doors and large windows contribute to the overall feeling of openness Clean lines, geometrical designs, and simplicity of shape are all hallmarks of this style Derivatives Include: Mid-Century, Contemporary, and Soft Contemporary
