Popular at the turn of the century, Colonial is still the most popular style in the United States. Based on 17th and 18th Century colonial buildings, the Colonial style combines elements of Federal and Georgian architecture. It emphasizes order and simplicity in response to the excessive decoration of Victorian architecture. Among its characteristics are a rectangular form, a low-lying roof with gabled ends and a prominent framed entryway. A wide range of paint colors work well with Colonial, from traditional whites and bright yellows to richer, darker colors.
