Old House Architecture Love

I have this thing about houses and architecture. I love it so much that when I see a house I love, or some kind of old house architecture I love, I will snap a quick picture of it for my own reference!These are some homes and some thing from some businesses I’ve taken pictures of over the last three or four years from all over.

I just loved how the window had such great detail! There is something about having a small window in an attic space that is so interesting. With the addition of all of the woodwork and careful trim it makes for a gorgeous combination.

 I thought this dental molding was so pretty and interesting. I also love the addition of a stained glass window and all of the cedar shake siding. The combination of the curved siding and the dental molding really makes for an interesting combination.

I loved how this old door had such great wear and tear! The brass kickplate and vintage door numbers are something you don’t see too often anymore.

Just. Totally.Amazing. This stone work around the windows it such interesting detail especially since you know it was carved by hand at one time, not to mention the stone railing.This was actually a business but you know somebody lived here at one time! Just beautiful!

I loved this light fixture outside of a shop. It has such character.

And this is an art gallery. How amazing is this? I would gather all of my books around me like some crazy book lady and read in that turret for hours. There is also nothing like a wrap around porch to really add to a homes aesthetics. With the stained glass windows and the curved architecture, it really makes me wish they built homes like this.

Thanks for letting me share these with you!
