Tudor architecture
Black and white
Tudor architecture is an English building style from the late 15th to early 17th centuries, characterized by steeply pitched roofs, tall chimneys, and distinctive half-timbering—exposed dark wooden beams against white plaster walls.
The term now loosely describes revival styles imitating these features: a Tudor architecture subdivision with decorative half-timbering.
American Tudor Revival homes from the 1920s and 1930s are common in older suburbs.
