Q: What building materials are in Federal architecture?

• <div><p>The most idyllic building material that encapsulates the feel of Federal architecture is a brick facade, often with bricks alternating between long side and short side. Palladium and arched transom windows are also prevalent, as are flat, white window lintels. More ornate Federal architecture buildings also include columns on either side of the front door. More important than most of the finer details, though, is the symmetry from the exterior. On the interior, ornate plaster moldings and plaster ceiling medallions are indicative of the style.</p></div>

Q: What are other methods of changing stainless steel color?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t want to rely on paint to change the color of your stainless steel surface, there are a few other methods, but they require specialized equipment and skills.
