posted in: Architects offices studios | 0

Georgian architecture refers to the architectural style of the period from 1720 and 1830. It takes its name from the four British King Georges who ruled at this time. Georgian architecture departed from the English Baroque style of the early 18th century, characterised by bold and opulent curved shapes, strong lines, ornamental design and rich colours.
