Italian House Plans

Italian style homes -- part of the more general Mediterranean style -- feature gently-pitched roofs with wide, overhanging eaves supported by large decorative brackets recalling the pediment shape of classical temples. The Italian style floor plan typically revolves around a circular staircase in a tall tower. Common Italianate features are the grouping of either straight or round-headed windows into threes or small arcades, and the placement of porches or arcaded loggias between the tower and house or at the corners. Italian "Villa Style" homes were first popularized in two books by theorist Alexander Jackson Downing -- Cottage Residences -- of 1842, and Architecture of Country Houses, of 1850. The style could be built with many different materials, from stucco to wood, and was easily adapted depending on the budget. New technologies of the Victorian Era made it possible to quickly and inexpensively produce cast-iron and press-metal decorations.
