Italian Revival House

Italian Revival House

This 12,800-square-foot Italian Revival home in New Orleans combines classical elements inspired by the architecture of Andrea Palladio with Mediterranean Revival influences. The design honors its neighborhood and enhances the appeal of Saint Charles Avenue. The facade features a single-story portico with a cut-stone arcade and a balustrade terrace above. 

While the overall simplicity of the facade is striking, the portico adds a dramatic touch without overpowering the surrounding architecture. Positioned on a corner lot, the house has a secondary facade that showcases picturesque Mediterranean Revival details, including iron gates, a second-story pergola, and a tower. 

The interior layout is designed to accommodate the clients’ art collection, featuring smooth plaster walls and simple casings alongside richly adorned ceilings with groin and barrel vaults, beams, and paneling. 

The house received the 2019 Pinnacle Stone Award and the 2019 Addison Mizner Award for best single-family residence over 10,000 square feet.
