Stick Style
Isaac Kremer/ January 14, 2018/ / 0 comments
A style of wood construction that appeared after the Civil War, designed to suggest the wood framework beneath. Vertical, horizontal, and diagonal flat boards organize the exterior elevations by outlining panels of various siding textures. “Sticks” were also used to decorate gables, porch supports, and brackets. Sometimes referred to as “Stick style” with the word style lowercase. Should use “Stick Style” instead, because this is a proper name. (Foster, 2004)
