"In the United States, Queen Anne developed from the desire to establish a national style. This style includes decorative wall surface patterns, framed in strap-work, polychrome color schemes, and steeply pitched rooflines. Typically, the buildings are 1 - 2-stories in height. Preserving the ornamental details and the original materials of this style are high priorities.
Characteristics:
irregular, asymmetrical massing
forward extension of wall planes; towers and triangular sections
decorative shingles
spindlework porch supports with lace-like brackets
windows with leaded or stained glass
patterned window panes
bay windows
corbelled brick chimneys" (from (
