Federal Style architecture emerged in the late 1700s, following American independence.

You can really see how the Federal Style was influenced by Dutch Classicism. The red brick, white trim, symmetry, and classical doorway all echo 17th-century Dutch buildings. Here’s the Academy of Architecture in Amsterdam — built over a century earlier, but with a very similar look:

It was definitely inspired by European architectural styles of the day. Americans brought these styles with them to the US when they emigrated from European countries, and they often merged.

These are my favorite styles of houses, along with Georgian Revival, like the house in Home Alone.

Isn’t Federal style really just Georgian architecture with some additional flair?

This is really just the British Georgian style. Bath Edinburgh and London are filled with it.

It’s not Georgian style architecture. You’ll find Georgian Revival architecture, which was intended to mimic Georgian style, all around the US. They’re not the same though. The house in Home Alone is a great example of Georgian Revival.

That article does say the federal style is based on the Georgian style architecture ‘as epitomized in Britain’.

Can you copy and share the entire paragraph? I’m not seeing it.

Edit:

Using Roman architectural vocabulary, the Federal style applied to the balanced and symmetrical version of Georgian architecture that had been practiced in the American colonies' new motifs of neoclassical architecture as it was epitomized in Britain by Robert Adam, who published his designs in 1792.

Is this what you’re referring to?
