  • Bring Touches of the Italian Renaissance to Your Traditional New England Home

    The classic Italianate home design style weaves elements of the Italian Renaissance into modern homes and features exterior elements that make homes stand out. Elements of this design style can also be integrated into a traditional New England home to reflect your personal style and enhance your home’s best features. The most classic Italianate architectural details include:
