Jacobean architecture

 


Jacobean architecture, which emerged during the early 17th century in England under the reign of James I, is characterized by its symmetrical design, prominent use of mullioned windows, a combination of brick and stone construction, gabled roofs, ornate details like carvings and motifs, and distinctive chimneys. It represents a transitional period in English architecture, blending elements of the Elizabethan and Renaissance styles.
