<TD class=l17><FONT class=f14 id=zoom><BR>Question 32-44<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"><BR> </SPAN>Seventeenth-century
houses in colonial North America <BR>were simple structures that
were primarily functional carrying <BR>over traditional designs that
went back to the Middle Ages. <BR>During the first half of the
eighteenth century, however, <BR>houses began to show a new
elegance. As wealth increased, <BR>more and more colonists built
fine houses.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"><BR> </SPAN>Since
architecture was not yet a specialized profession in<BR>the
colonies, the design of buildings was left either to amateur
<BR>designers or to carpenters who undertook to interpret
architectural <BR>manuals imported from England. Inventories of
colonial <BR>libraries show an astonishing number of these handbooks
for <BR>builders, and the houses erected during the eighteenth
century <BR>show their influence. Nevertheless, most domestic
architecture <BR>of the first three-quarters of the eighteenth
century <BR>displays a wide divergence of taste and freedom of
application of <BR>the rules laid down in these books.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"><BR> </SPAN>Increasing wealth and
growing sophistication throughout <BR>the colonies resulted in
houses of improved design, whether <BR>the material was wood, stone,
or brick. New England still <BR>favored wood, though brick houses
became common in Boston <BR>and other towns, where the danger of
fire gave an impetus to <BR>the use of more durable material. A few
houses in New <BR>England were built of stone, but only in
Pennsylvania and adjacent <BR>areas was stone widely used in
dwellings. An increased use of <BR>brick in houses and outbuildings
is noticeable in Virginia and <BR>Maryland, but wood remained that
most popular material even <BR>in houses built by wealthy
landowners. In the Carolinas, even <BR>in closely packed Charleston,
wooden houses were much more <BR>common than brick houses.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"><BR> </SPAN>Eighteenth-century
houses showed great interior improvements <BR>over their
predecessors. Windows were made larger <BR>and shutters removed.
Large, clear panes replaced the small <BR>leaded glass of the
seventeenth century. Doorways were larger <BR>and more decorative.
Fireplaces became decorative features of <BR>rooms. Walls were made
of plaster or wood, sometimes elaborately <BR>paneled. White paint
began to take the place of blues, <BR>yellows, greens, and lead
colors, which had been popular for <BR>walls in the earlier years.
After about 1730, advertisements <BR>for wallpaper styles in scenic
patterns began to appear in <BR>colonial newspapers.<BR>32.What does
