English Tudor Revival, Columbia, Mississippi

This 1920s English Revival house is styled after the cottages in the Cotswold area of Britain.  Its main architectural features are the smooth stucco siding and the elaborate brick & stone work.  The key to selecting paints for this type of home is to supplement the natural beauty of the architecture.

The stucco is painted in a "marble" color with a period gray/tan trim.  The window sashes are in an English red.  The lovely arched entry door is stark black similar to those in the town of Leek, England.
