In the early nineteenth century, Indiana was at the intersection of
ideas from the East and the frontier - resulting in a unique
opportunity to express creative adaptions of residential
architectural styles in America. Industrialization later in the
century created new wealth to build extraordinary houses outside of
cities; by the early twentieth century, Americans had created their
own distinctive residential architecture with the Prairie Style.
This 240 page compendium includes over ninety houses in Indiana
which are representative of the finest American residential
architecture, from the Federal and Classical Revival styles to
Modern. The fascinating story of the evolution of residential
architecture elaborates on the character defining features of each
period, including the exterior form, massing, details as well as
interiors - all beautifully illustrated in large format black and
white photographs.
