…In the first half of the 19th century, various styles were adopted, including Gothic, Italian villas and palazzos, and Romanesque. The Gothic Paulding House (designed by A. J. Davis, 1838-42, Lyndhurst) is a well-known example. In the mid-19th century, landscape architect Andrew Jackson Downing (1815-52) introduced Tudor and Italian architecture and landscape gardening styles through his writings, while at the same time promoting the creation of a unique American style of wooden house, arguing that the distinctive features of traditional wooden architecture, namely sticks (wooden framework members) in both structure and finish, should be directly expressed.
