Colonial Style

Japanese: コロニアル・スタイル(英語表記)Colonial Style
Colonial Style
A style of architecture and crafts practiced in colonies. In Latin America, Spain from the 15th century, and in India in the 17th and 18th centuries, Britain incorporated the local climate, materials, and techniques into the mother country's style to create a style with regional characteristics. Generally, it refers to architecture from the colonial period of America (1620-1820), and is a general term for the various styles that immigrants developed in newly established lands where there were no suitable traditions, simplifying the architectural styles of their home countries. In the early days, practical facilities such as houses, warehouses, churches, and meeting houses were built using familiar materials such as wood and brick.

植民地で行われた建築や工芸の様式。ラテン・アメリカでは15世紀以来スペインが,また17~18世紀にはインドでイギリスが,母国の様式に各地の風土性や材料,技術を取りこんで,地方的特色ある様式を生み出した。一般にはアメリカの植民地時代(1620‐1820)の建築についていわれるもので,適当な伝統がなかった新開地に移民たちが故国の建築様式を簡略化しながら展開した各種のスタイルを総称していう。 初期には,住宅,倉庫,教会,集会所など,木や煉瓦などの身近な材料を用いた実用的施設が建てられた。
