DescriptionSouthgate-Lewis House paired with City of Urbana's prototypical example of Stick Style.jpg
English: In an article entitled “The Architectural Styles of Urbana’s 100 Most Important Buildings,” the City of Urbana identified some 28 different “Architectural Styles”. One of the styles they included was the Stick Style. Shown herein is the example the City of Urbana provided for the category of Stick Style – the “red house”.
Note that on the elevations of the Southgate-Lewis House, there are ornamental horizontal, vertical, and diagonal white-painted decorative boards that segregate, accentuate, and help to define underlying structure. The decorative woodwork evokes the carpentered structural framework. The white-painted woodwork also segregates the siding from the shingles as well as the vertical siding from the horizontal siding. Finally, note that the white painted woodwork also occurs vertically at the corners of the first elevation.
