Period House Style

Welcome to Period House Style. This website offers the resources to research the correct period details of your home. From Victorian front doors, Regency wallpaper to Bakelite handles. This guide provides an insight into each period style whether you are restoring, extending or building your home.

Period House Style is laid out so that either details of specific periods i.e. Edwardian can be researched or by general features i.e. Leaded Glass. Each page provides a history of the subject, lots of images and further links to either research or source products.

Prague Doorways

Prague has examples of architecture that spans over one thousand years. It was spared from heavy war damage and now displays so much beauty that viewers are inspired at every corner.

Both domestic and business properties in Old Prague are heavily decorated with large slabs of granite, carved wood, stone statues and painted plaster decorations on an enormous scale. Doorways span 20 feet high and surrounding it is art that tells a story or depicts a religious tale.
