Inspired by 18 <sup>th</sup>-century archaeological discoveries, it attempted to follow closely original models. Greek revival buildings often look like temples, with a series of large stone or wood columns marking part or all of the structure, though there are many examples that emphasize Greek details rather than whole buildings. In the United States, it flourished at the time of the Greek war for independence from Turkey, and many saw the style as a manifestation of democracy.<br />361 Refers to a style of architecture in Europe and the United States begun in the 1750s in Europe, and flourishing there from the 1790s and then in this country from approximately 1815 to the 1850s, which was characterized by the use of classical Greek forms and ornament.

The style is characterized by the use of pointed arches, rosettes, pinnacles, tracery, foils, and polychrome effects inspired by Gothic architecture and at times reproduced with the general aim of historical accuracy, though often the spirit was as important as the details. Especially associated with churches, it could also be found in a wide range of building types, including by the late 19 <sup>th</sup>and 20th century examples in campus architecture in what came to be called Collegiate Gothic.<br />375 Refers mainly to a style that flourished first in England and then spread to the European continent but even more strongly to America, beginning in the mid- to late 18th century, triumphing in the mid-19th century, and continuing into the twentieth.

It is primarily characterized by the use of semicircular arches, barrel and groin vaults, massive blocks of masonry and, at times, the spare use of Romanesque and/or naturalistic ornament. A specific variety, called Richardsonian Romanesque, was inspired by the architecture of the American H. H.

Inspired by the approach to architectural design espoused at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, this style included the use of classically articulated and often symmetrical massing, a primary axial orientation in plan (often with subsidiary axes), and hierarchically arranged and related internal spaces that offered the opportunity for a directed, processional movement through a building.
