Introduction The distinctive mode of architectural production from 1780-1910 saw many changes made in the physical appearance and functionality of the houses to meet the emerging needs. According to Jefferis, the primary role of an architect is to produce designs that meet the unique expectations of clients but in a functional manner. 1 During this period, architects were under pressure to come up with new designs that met the changing needs of the home owners. One of the architectural styles that emerged during this period was Queen Anne Style that gained massive popularity both in Europe and the United States. Although the design has been common in the United States even in the recent past, the design was very popular from 1880 to 1910. Ramsey says that during this period, Queen Anne architectural design was the most popular, especially among the affluent members of the society in the United States and Europe. 2 The design was specifically used when constructing homes, especially in the rural settings or leafy city suburbs, away from the noisy industrial centers. It was considered royal, given that the architects behind its creation were influenced by the designs used in the Elizabethan cottages. According to Colbert, this design emerged from England and spread very fast to the United States and other European nations during this period. 3 Most of the modern-day architectural designs were heavily influenced by this style. In this paper, the researcher will look at the history of Queen Anne architectural production and how it influenced the modern day architecture. Discussion According to Ferry, Queen Anne design emerged in 1880 as a standard design for domestic architecture in the era of Queen Victoria. 4 Richard Norman Shaw, an English architect, led a team of other English architects to come up with this design at a time when home ownership was becoming very popular in Europe and North America. Majority of the upper middle class and upper class members of the society were keen on owning homes that met their unique needs. The demand for these architectural designs was, therefore, rising with the increasing number of people in the upper middle and upper class. In this section, the researcher will look at what inspired these architects to come up with this design, how the design looked like, and how it impacted the modern architecture. Inspirations behind the design Richard Norman Shaw was one of the greatest English designers during his time. Like many other architects of his time, Shaw was not impressed by the urbanization that was growing in major cities in Europe, especially in the city of London. He was inspired by the Gothic Revival Philosophy that reacted against urban industrialism. He was convinced that homes should be set up in quiet environments where there is minimal noise and industrial pollution. This could not be achieved in the major urban centers where crowding was common in major residential areas. He, therefore, wanted to design houses that would be suitable for rural homes or homes in the leafy city suburbs away from the noise and confusion in densely populated parts of the city. Shaw led a team of English architects to come up with designs that wo
