A hipped roof of steep pitch is present in most <br />examples, although one subtype may incorporate a gabled roofin association with a conical-roofed tower. Tall chimneys are often <br />seen, as are dormers, which can emerge from the roof or be set flush with the wall, breaking the cornice. Arched openings for doors <br />and windows are common. More formal versions feature symmetry, Renaissance detailing, and quoins at corners and around arches. <br />Examples based on more rural prototypes are generally asymmetrical. Exterior walls may be stucco, brick, or stone, and may be <br />...domed with half-timbering. Windows are usually casements in type. (McAlester, pages 386-395.) <br /> <br />.:luMMARY/CONCLUSION: <br /> <br />The Van Home House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion I, as a structure with the <br />distinguishing characteristics of an architectural style, the French Eclectic style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as <br />"Key" because it "has a distinctive architectural style and quality" as one of the few Santa Ana examples of the French Eclectic style <br />ofthe 1920s and 1930s (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). <br /> <br />EXPLANATION OF CODES: <br /> <br />.
