Drawn as a plan for a finished house rather than a record of one, this rendering shows a brick Georgian mansion with a columned portico set at the center of a symmetrical facade. Georgian design, drawing on eighteenth-century British and Palladian models, shaped many American houses and public buildings in the years around the founding of the national capital, and Washington's early residences often followed its balanced windows and restrained brickwork. Renderings like this were made to persuade clients and builders, so the crisp outlines and shaded masonry show intent as much as finished reality. Look at how the portico anchors the facade and how the proportions follow classical rules.
