architectural features
Structural design details
Architectural features are the distinctive elements that give a building its character and style—columns, arches, cornices, dormers, moldings, and the like.
The term appears in real estate listings, historic preservation documents, and design discussions: The house retains its original architectural features.
Features may be structural or purely decorative.
