Chinese Baroque (Chinese architecture styles, Chinese (culture or style), ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: An architectural idiom appearing from the late 19th century, but more particularly 1910-1930, seen in the construction of shophouses of Malaysia and Singapore. It is a mix of European aesthetic traditions, especially Georgian, with Chinese and Malay patterns, which may combine Chinese friezes, pintu pagar half-doors, imported glazed tile, Palladian fan lights, and Doric columns with fretwork and grilles more common in a Southeast Asian context. Facades in this style are noted for their vivid color schemes.
