English: The Breiding House is significant as a rare, late, well-designed, urban expression of H.H. Richardson and McKim, Mead & White's interpretation primarily from the mid-1870s to the early 1880s of their contemporary, Richard Norman Shaw's domestic architecture in England. In the three architect's works, this Shavian style was marked by the use of a variety of materials, shapes, and colors on the facade and roof, and especially in the American expression, the roof became the visually dominant element and often with the entire structure being incorporated within a single massive gable roof.
