There are many brick and stone examples with half-timbered accents. Houses are generally simple, elegant forms with asymmetric compositions and have a variety of casement or double-hung windows.\n\t<p><strong>Arts and Crafts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Based on the English tradition of summer cottages, this style became popular in the United States in the late 19th century. Deep eaves, robust porch elements and shaped rafter tails are signature elements of this style. Windows tend to be wide in proportion and combined to take advantage of the light in living area. An asymmetric composition and massing is part of this vocabulary.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.prairietrailankeny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/arts-and-crafts.jpg\" alt=\"arts and crafts\" itemprop=\"image\" title=\"arts and crafts\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.prairietrailankeny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/colonial-revival.jpg\" alt=\"colonial revival\" itemprop=\"image\" title=\"colonial revival\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\t<p><strong>Colonial Revival<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These houses have roots in the Colonial and Classical traditions of the region. Later Colonial Revival houses derived their forms from more expressive Classical motifs featuring Ionic and Doric order columns and entablatures on the porches, deep eaves and cornices, and a variety of house massing types as well as window and door elements.<\/p>\n\t<strong>Victorian<\/strong><br \/>\nVictorian houses came into vogue in the latter half of the 19th century and signified a change in the way homes were designed and built. Industrialization and balloon framing techniques made more complex forms and more elaborate details. The Prairie Trail Victorian house will feature the simple but elegant Carpenter Gothic and Italianate variations of this style found throughout the region.\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dev.prairietrailankeny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/victorian.jpg\" alt=\"victorian\" itemprop=\"image\" title=\"victorian\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Architectural Styles Four Architectural Styles\u00a0Endless Options\u00a0in Prairie Trail In all of Prairie Trail&#8217;s residential neighborhoods, four traditional styles will be represented.
