For 35 years, Old-House Journal has helped old-house owners repair, restore, update and decorate homes and buildings of various ages and architectural styles. From Colonial-era to mid-century modern, Old-House Journal serves as a resource for readers devoted to restoring and preserving these homes.
Period-appropriate restoration, or historically-sensitive additions, on historic houses in the complete range of U.S. Architectural styles (Colonial-era, Federal, Georgian, Classical Revival, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Stick, Queen Anne, Shingle, Arts & Crafts, bungalow, Spanish Mission, Colonial Revival, Dutch Colonial Tudor, Beaux Arts, International, Art Moderne, Art Deco, mid-century). Consideration of era-appropriate detailing and appropriate materials use (ie, no aluminum siding over Victorian shingles) is especially important to OHJ, and products should speak to a specific architectural style and be part of a home’s permanent landscape (ie faucets, wallpaper, tile, etc.).
