Overview of House Styles from 1850-1990•Houses, in the 19th century, were either stylistic or non-stylistic with massive foundations; they were mostly 2 stories.
•During the Revival period, houses draw inspiration from European countries; expensive materials were used in these 2 storied houses.
•In the 1930s, stream-lined styles diffused from the coasts to the Midwest; these planar houses were also 2 stories.
•Post WWII houses had simplified symmetrical plans, and were stretched out in long rectangular shapes; they were 1-1.5 stories.
•Post-Modern styles used boxy geometric designs which emphasized simplicity; there is a revival of 2 story houses.
