Edwardian Houses!

Edwardian Style is another kind of architecture in SF!

The fact is Edward VII was a King between 1901 and 1910 in United Kingdom and that period was knew like Edwardian Era or Edwardian Period. He took power  after the death of Queen Victoria (which gave rise to Victorian Style, like I wrote here!).

Edward died in 1910 when he was 68 years old, however, this style kept being built until about 1915. In spite of the fame of Victorian Style, the Edwardian Baroque style of architecture was soo privileged for public structures. 


This style is characterized by the "square" shape, balcony, generally they are symmetries.

The picture above is on California St x Mason St. If you like to see buildings and differentes kinds of constructions (like me), go to that crossroad!

Talking about differentes styles of architecture, do you know what painted ladies is?!

Painted Ladies is the term used to call, not only houses in Victorian and Edwardian Style, but also houses painted in three or more colors to embellish and enhance the respective style.
