Highland Park Architectural Styles

The French Renaissance Chateau is modeled after the renaissance castles in France which were modeled after castles in Italy. Recognized for its castle-like dormers, towers and shell keeps, homes with French Renaissance archtecture often create the illusion of a protected castle with a psuedo draw-bridge effect. Grand gated entries give the illusion of a fortified fortress.

Aspects of French Renaissance Architectural Design

  • Dormers 
  • Shell Keeps
  • Towers
  • Turrets
  • Natural Stone
  • Carved Stone
  • Gardens
  • Grand Entries
  • Ballrooms
  • Spiral Staircase
  • Engraving
  • Itallianate Style

 An example of French Renaissance includes The Lourve Museum in Paris, France.

 Masterpiece of the French Renaissance
