During the period from 1780-1820, the Adam
Style took over as most prominent approach to architecture in New England.
This technique is known for its lightness and fineness, utilizing thin and
widely-spaced columns, delicate geometric and naturalistic ornamentation,
and narrower windows than those of the Georgian colonial style. The Adam
Style also includes a larger number of curved shapes than other Classical
styles, as well as a subtle roof.
