Spanish Revival
Spanish Revival houses, based loosely on original Spanish farmhouses, typically have a red tile roof without an overhang. Relatively small numbers of them were scattered around Dallas, with a rich grouping designed by Clifford D. Hutsell on Lakewood Boulevard close to White Rock Lake.

Neoclassical
Thousands of years after the first stone temples were built in Greece, early 1900s Neoclassical houses were built in Munger Place, Winnetka Heights, and Swiss Avenue. During the 1930s and 1950s, Lakewood and Park Cities gained many examples.

Tudor
Tudor was the most popular of “period houses” that dominated the 1920s. Tudor houses almost always have a group of tall, narrow, rectangular casement windows and a steep-pitch roof. Characteristic to Dallas are beige-brick houses with reddish-brown ironstone.

Italian Renaissance
This style almost always has rounded arches—above the front door, lower-story windows, porch, or in some combination. Arches were perfected by the Romans, who used them profusely in their buildings (picture the Roman Colosseum).

Craftsman
While Craftsman homes look old-fashioned to us today, they were quite modern in the early 20th century when they were built. Groupings created the Winnetka Heights, Junius Heights, Vickery Place, Wheatley Place, and Belmont Addition neighborhoods.

Contemporary
The style often features broad expanses of solid masonry on front façades, eschewing more typical window openings for glass in gable ends that extend well above eye level. Front-facing windows were often shielded from public view by a sunscreen or wall.
