SPANISH COLONIAL REVIVAL STYLE ARCHITECTURE (1915-1941)
"The Spanish Colonial Revival was a direct outgrowth of the
earlier Mission style, and examples were built as early as the
1890s in Southern California.
The symbolic beginning of the revival was the San Diego
Fair in 1915 and the building designed for the fair by Bertram
G. Goodhue and Carleton M. Winslow.
By the 1920s it became
the style for Southern California.
Hispanic or, as they were often called, Mediterranean
designs were employed for the full range of building types.
MEDITERRANEAN REVIVAL STYLE ARCHITECTURE
(1915-1941)
The Mediterranean Revival was an eclectic design style can be
used to describe not only the Spanish Colonial Revival Styles of
the early part of the 20th century but any of the revival styles
that are derivative from styles found in the Mediterranean.
Italian, Moroccan, Southern French and Spanish Revival Style
buildings can all be considered Mediterranean Revival.
