I thought I would start off with a rare find for our architectural tour. This home is a stately interpretation of the Spanish Colonial design found in Nichols Hills, OK.
Attributes that contribute to the style:
- Terra Cotta Tile Roof
- Gleaming White Stucco Facade
- Arch Design (repeated in Garage and main entry)
- Short Overhanging Eaves
Other attributes of the style would be a semi-circular design wrapping around a pool and outdoor living space. Interiors would be easy and relaxed open spaces, great for entertaining. Nothing formal, just easy breezy with warm tones and woods.
The style draws from designs all over the Mediterranean and was popularized after the opening of the Panama Canal. The early adopters and most prominent location of this style was the city of San Diego, where the warm weather year-round lends well to open living spaces that incorporate the outdoors.
