Power in Buildings by Hugh Ferriss. During the 18th century, the "common houses" were whitewashed in lime mortar with an oyster shell aggregate. Typically two-story, the houses included cooling porches to accommodate the Florida climate. The style developed in the Southwest with Pueblo design influences from the indigenous Puebloan peoples architecture. In Alta California , present-day California , the style developed differently, being too far for imported building materials and without skilled builders, into a strong simple version for building the missions between and Ranchos were typically built of adobe.

By or so, two-story gable-end homes were common in New Amsterdam. In the countryside of the Hudson Valley, the Dutch farmhouse evolved into a linear-plan home with straight-edged gables moved to the end walls. Around , the distinctive gambrel roof was adopted from the English styles, with the addition of overhangs on the front and rear to protect the mud mortar used in the typically stone walls and foundations.

The early colonists to this region adapted the "half-timber" style of construction then popular in Europe, which used a frame of braced timbers filled-in with masonry. The "bank house" was a popular form of home during this period, typically constructed into a hillside for protection during the cold winters and hot summers of the region.

The two-story "country townhouse" was also common around Pennsylvania during this time. The region surrounding the Chesapeake Bay on America's east coast was settled primarily by immigrants from the British isles. The standard vernacular house built by the colonists in this region between the first settlement in and the end of British rule in followed the I-plan format , had either interior or exterior gable chimneys, and was either wooden or brick.

Most were only one room deep. Academic architecture was evident, but it was relatively scarce. Colonial architect William Buckland designed this house in and the resulting house is a very skillful adaptation of the Villa Pisani for the warmer climate of the Chesapeake Bay region.

In what would become the United States, however, one found both brick buildings as well as those in wood with clapboards. They were sometimes painted a pale yellow. This differentiated them from most other structures that were usually not painted. Mostly box shaped with multiple chimneys. A Georgian colonial house usually has a formally defined living room , dining room and sometimes a family room. The bedrooms are typically on the second floor. They also have one or two chimneys that can be very large.
