Spanish Colonial Revival architecture shares many elements with the very closely-related Mission Revival and Pueblo styles of the West and Southwest , and is strongly informed by the same Arts & Crafts Movement that was behind those architectural styles. Characterized by a combination of detail from several eras of Spanish and Mexican architecture, the style is marked by the prodigious use of smooth Plaster ( Stucco ) Wall and Chimney finishes, low-pitched Clay Tile , shed, or flat roofs, and Terra Cotta or cast Concrete ornaments. Other characteristics typically include small Porches or balconies, Roman or Semi-circular Arcades and Fenestration , wood casement or tall, double–hung windows, Canvas Awning s, and decorative Iron trim.
