Learn about Residential Architecture, from Neocolonial to McMansion

"House Styles: A Guide To Residential Architecture"
About.com

"What style is your house? These articles and resources will help you identify architectural styles and recognize important trends in housing design. Compiled by Jackie Craven...."

If you lie awake nights, afraid that you won't be able to explain the difference between a Colonial Revival House and one designed in the Neocolonial style, this link page is for you.

At last, people who have struggled with the embarrassment of not knowing why architects developed the Rustic shingle style can learn how Victorian fussiness inspired a new style: in the privacy of their own homes.

After studying the resources here, you too can intelligently discuss the merits of modern, postmodern and McMansion houses.

Seriously? This is a pretty good resource.
