 * The English "Queen Anne" style embraced red brick, white-painted sash windows, gables, small window panes, steep roofs and bay windows, mixed 'with skill and gaiety' (from "Sweetness and Light, the Queen Anne Movement")
 * In Australia the Queen Anne style emphasised assymetrical design and...
 * Most homes have front verandas with decorative timber features,
 * tiling on the patio floor and entry paths.
 * The brickwork is usually a deep red or dark brown, often with a mix of the two.
 * Window designs include oriels or bay windows, and small panes above main windows, with window timbers painted white
 * The roofs are typically terracotta tiles with decorative gables, motifs, timber features, tall chimneys and [|fretwork].
 * Decorative leadlight windows are also common, as are circular windows (known as bulls-eye windows).
 * Federation homes also have decorative internal features in the plasterwork, high ceilings and timber features.

Federation Filigree style;
The **Federation Filigree** style is common in the hotter parts of Australia, especially in the north, since it is designed to create shade while allowing for the free flow of air.

 * It is a common sight in Queensland and is sometimes known as the Queensland style.
 * Some outstanding examples are Belltrees House, Scone, New South Wales; Fairy Knoll, 2 Robertson Road, Eastern Heights, Ipswich, Queensland; and the terrace of homes, east side of High Street, Millers Point, New South Wales.

Federation Arts and Craft style;
|| The **Federation Arts and Craft** style had its origins in England, where architects were reacting to the impersonal nature of the Industrial Revolution.

Crafts and handiwork were emphasised to give architecture the "human touch". >

 * Outstanding examples are Glyn, Kooyong road, Toorak, Victoria; The Crossways, Martin Road, Centennial Park, New South Wales; and Erica, Appian Way, Burwood, New South Wales.

Federation Bungalow style.
Camberwell VIC built 1891 ||= Appian Way, Burwood, New South Wales ||= Casa Tasso, Appian Way, Burwood, New South Wales || The **Federation Bungalow** style was the Australian response to the bungalow style that was developed in America by people like Gustav Stickley.(Gustav Stickley was a furniture manufacturer, design leader, publisher and the chief proselytizer for the American Craftsman style, an extension of the British Arts and Crafts Movement). >

 * [[image:Fed-Bungalow.gif width="196" height="239" align="right" caption="Torcello' 310 Burwood Rd Burwood" link="Federation Bungalow style"]]The **Federation Bungalow** can be seen as a transition phase between the Federation Queen Anne style and the California Bungalow style that took on later.
 * Stylistically, it exploited the qualities of the bungalow while frequently retaining the flair and idiosyncrisies of the Queen Anne style, although usually in simplified form.
 * Outstanding examples are Nee Morna, Nepean Highway, Sorrento, Victoria; Blythewood, Beecroft Road, Cheltenham New South Wales; and The Eyrie, Fox Valley Road, Wahroonga, New South Wales.
