Mediterranean Revival?

Reminds me a bit of a less ornate version of the Ringling Mansion, Cà d'Zan, which was built in the mid-1920s.

I looked up Moorish Revival. So is the dome the same thing as a cupola? I read somewhere that the dome was preceded by the cupola which had it's origins in Islamic architecture where it sat atop a minaret from where the daily call to prayer was made. The home has been called Spanish revival before but from my research, Spanish colonial or Sp Revival had smaller windows and flatter roofs. Also large stained glass seems unique in that stained glass was more common in Gothic architecture. Both Gothic and Moorish architecture appear more ornate when I look at images online. So it seems to be some eclectic or heterogeneous style. Stucco and tile roof definitely Mediterranean. Arches, wrought iron railings, vaulted interior ceilings, colorful geometric tile floors inside seem Spanish or Moorish. I guess you call this roof style a "hip" roof since it is not flat. Not sure what Med style that would be associated with. And the copper dome I have not seen used in residential architecture, nor this size of stained glass esp in combination with the dome. Almost a combo like one would see in a place of worship, if the dome was atop a bell tower...

Wanting to implement a new color scheme. One that I believe will match the architecture more accurately than current khaki yellow. Am deliberating between a brighter white like Alabaster vs a softer more aged looking creamy white.

I don't think I would use acrylic paint on this structure. I'd investigate masonry paint so the texture is not reduced.

There are quite a few of these houses in the Los Angeles suburbs, San Diego and Santa Barbara areas. Try searching on Houzz photos, google and some real estate sites to get more ideas. Add "remodel" into your search terms, so you don't get new houses.

Beautiful examples thx!

What an incredible home! In selecting the color I think you need to consider what variation of stark white vs creamy white goes with the roof tone, dome tone, iron window straps, and the wood work above the door. Perhaps there are other materials on the outside of the house that need to be accounted for as well. I think something not too stark, but not too creamy. I think it is worth hiring a very good color consultant.

Contact your local historical society and ask them for the names of preservationist specialists in your area. I think that you should have paint samples taken from your home—-on your exterior and your interior, including your trim. Have them analyzed for color. I, for one, would at least like to know what the original paint colors on your home were when it was built. It is an architectural gem. Is it a listed property? There might be restrictions in place on what you can do to the outside of your home, if it is a “designated” or “listed” property. Check first! Historical preservationists can be helpful in finding answers to your questions AND the crafts people who can do the work in a sensitive manner. (Note: most “restrictions” are for exterior renovations, etc. not the interior.). STUNNING home! And, yes, it has Moorish Revival characteristics, popular in the 1920s and 30s. Even in NE Ohio!

Thanks for the suggestions and compliments. It is not listed and I have not pushed to have it listed for the reason you mentioned. I will ask about finding its original color. In the 1980s and 90s it was a softer off-white. No idea what it was in the 30's-50s.

Beautiful house! I actually really like the present color, it really works with your roof and trim colors. But maybe I’m just getting tired of all the white houses popping up everywhere:)

Maybe just tone down the color, but don't go all the way to white? Our previous house in LA was a Spanish style painted a slightly lighter version of yours when we bought it. I call it "mustard-orange" beige!

I ended up repainting with Dunn Edwards DEC747 Sahara. Dunn Edwards also makes a very good elastomeric paint which you should use to paint stucco.

All cracks in stucco repaired with mesh and new plaster. House already has several coats of acrylic so we are going with SW Accessible Beige. Similar to a limestone color. Swapping out old paint downspouts for nee copper downspouts. Green and bronze accent colors.

Almost done. Copper downspouts coming tomorrow.

Absolutely GORGEOUS! Bravo!
