European house plans aren’t so much an architectural style as they are a “look” for many types
of popular home plans. This catch-all designation embraces
architectural touches from a variety of European home plan traditions and melds them
together to create an original house plan, though highly familiar look. For example, quoins
from the Georgian house plan style and palladian windows originating from the 16th Century
Italian architect, Andrea Palladio, might combine with arched openings
reminiscent of the French Normandy house plan style and Cotswold Cottage-style shutters.
Some European house plan similarities are common, though not always universal. Exteriors are
typically brick, stone, or stucco and the homes are usually 1-1/2 or two stories
tall. This assortment of European house plans from Alan Mascord Design
Associates, Inc. offers a broad spectrum of looks from simple European-style
cottages, stucco house plans, elegant house plans, European French house plans and more lavish estates—all showcasing Old World touches.
