Indian style
Earlier, the Indian style had appeared in the USA, notably at P. T. Barnum's house at Bridgeport, CT (1846–8), designed by Leopold Eidlitz and based on Nash's work at Brighton. This clearly influenced Henry Austin when designing the New Haven Railroad Station (1851). Samuel Sloan's The Model Architect (1852–3) included designs with Indian flavours (e.g. the ‘Oriental Villa’), clearly the model for his Longwood Villa (Nutt's Folly), Natchez, MS (1854–61), a polygonal house crowned with an onion-dome. The published design may have influenced the New York Crystal Palace (1853–4) by Carstensen and Gildemeister, a polychrome structure of iron and glass.
In the C20 Lutyens's Viceroy's House, New Delhi (1912–31), combined an essential Classicism with many themes derived from Indian architecture.

Encyclopedia.com gives you the ability to cite reference entries and articles according to common styles from the Modern Language Association (MLA), The Chicago Manual of Style, and the American Psychological Association (APA).
Within the “Cite this article” tool, pick a style to see how all available information looks when formatted according to that style. Then, copy and paste the text into your bibliography or works cited list.
Because each style has its own formatting nuances that evolve over time and not all information is available for every reference entry or article, Encyclopedia.com cannot guarantee each citation it generates.
