Which option is Tudor style?

• A. Tudor
• B. Colonial
• C. Ranch
• D. Contemporary

Answer: (A)

Tudor style is defined by a distinctive exterior that reads as old-world and textured. Look for exposed timber framing with plaster or brick infill (the half-timbered look), a roof with steep pitches and multiple gables, tall narrow windows often divided into small panes, and large decorative chimneys that become a strong vertical feature. The façade tends to be asymmetrical and richly textured rather than perfectly balanced. In contrast, Colonial emphasizes symmetry and evenly spaced windows with a central door, Ranch is a low, long, single-story layout, and Contemporary favors wide glass walls, minimal ornament, and modern materials.
