pastiched

Mimicked another's style

Pastiched describes something created in the style of pastiche—assembled from borrowed styles, elements, or motifs rather than originating fresh.

A pastiched film score might draw on multiple composers; a pastiched building might combine architectural elements from different eras: The mall's pastiched facades evoked everything from Tudor England to Art Deco New York.
