Introduction:
Early modernism, which emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, had a significant impact on later examples of interior architecture. Its emphasis on simplicity, functionality, and the use of new materials paved the way for subsequent design movements. Here's how early modernism influenced later examples:
The Adam Orris House is a historic house in Pennsylvania's Cumberland County that is situated in Mechanicsburg. It is a three-story, rectangular, second empire-style brick structure that was constructed sometime about 1887. It has a full-width front porch, a corner tower, a projecting three-story bay, and a mansard roof made of tin. Constructed approximately around 1887, the property also has a contributing carriage house.

U.S. architect Henry Hobson Richardson (1838–1886) is often credited with not only reviving the medieval Romanesque architectural style but also transforming these romantic buildings into a popular American style. Constructed of rusticated stone with rough surfaces, Romanesque Revival styles resemble small castles with their corner turrets and identifying arches. The style was often used for large public buildings like libraries and courthouses, but some private homes were also built in what became known as the Richardson or Richardsonian Romanesque style. The Glessner house, Richardson's Chicago, Illinois design finished in 1887, not only influenced the Victorian-era styles of American architecture, but also the future work of American architects such as Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. Because of Richardson's great influence on American architecture, his 1877 Trinity Church in Boston, Massachusetts has been called one of the ten buildings that changed America.
