neo-classical
A conservative application of classical Greek and Roman design features, including columns, arches, and pediments.
The style is generally rational and conservative, using symmetrical plans and a regular vocabulary of columns, colonnades, arches, and pediments. Designs normally follow the pattern of the classical column, with a pronounced base, a uniform shaft with little decoration, and a clearly defined top. Facades are almost always brick or stone.
