The love for luxury homes is not a new discovery; it
is an old desire that has been growing among us since forever. To begin with, during
the 1700s, European settlers in North America incorporated these architectural
styles of their native countries into their new homes which we call colonial
architecture in the modern times. The styles that arose as "Colonial
architecture," are also known by many other names thatinclude Georgian
Colonial homes, Spanish Colonial, German Colonial, French Colonial, Dutch
Colonial, Federal and Cape Cod.
The characteristics of this masterpiece stood unique
regardless of the size of the home. Most colonial homes share different
characteristics, these homes are symmetrical, or square, and some homes even feature
an entry door that can be found in the middle of the front of the building.
This style also bears two windows on both sides of the entry door, along with
five windows on the second floor, with one stylishly placed directly above the
entry door. Now to mention few other characteristics, they include paired chimneys;mostlya
medium pitched roof to access drainage in rainy weather and a stairway that is
directly behind the entry door which leads to a hallway
that bisects the middle of the second floor. These were some specifications of
the standard colonial homes back then.
When the colonial architecture came to India in the
mid-16th century, the earliest buildings of them all were entirely constructed
with wood and were heavily fortified. Later on, the Portuguese began using
stone as their regional influence increased and eventually they gained access
to quarries. Soon thereafter, the Dutch, Danes, French, and other English counterparts
followed suit. Due to the perceived danger from locals, even some factories
were built in a defensive posture, with long fences and gates. Inside these
rudimentary complexes were courtyards, public administrative buildings, and
warehouses. As things kept getting better and better, it was not until the
middle of the 18th century when European colonials would begin building to the
east as well. The history of these homes is however very vast to understand in
one go. The best way we suppose you can get closer to know these magical
possessions is by owning one at the Jain Heights.
