The Colonial distinguishes with geometric lines and shapes. Its very specific elements include square shapes, ornamental front entries placed front and center, and two windows on either side of the entry door.
Known for its multi-paned, symmetrically spaced windows
Doors with panels and pilasters take center stage, usually topped with windows
Porticos focus attention and provide shade for the front doors
Colonial homes typically have five windows on the second floor, with one directly above the front door
Distinguished symmetrical shapes and lines and prominent windows create the perfect showcase for accents. The key is to keep window and door surrounds simple and add tasteful ornamentation when needed.
