Styles and models : houses with archways in the northern Hautes-Alpes department
Houses with archways are thought to be typical of the Vallouise Valley, France, even though they represent a small proportion of houses there and are found elsewhere too. The only feature that distinguishes them from other houses in Vallouise is the facade. All houses have the same structure, interior distribution of space and system of circulation. The archways on the facade thus seem to be a deliberate embellishment independent of a house's internal layout. This style of house was adopted during the second half of the 18th century by well-off farmers and local officials, who chose it out of a stock of forms that was neither typically rural nor specifically Alpine.
