Answer
Hi Carl. You didn't mention how old you are, but since you seem comfortable on the computer, I'll tell you how to form your search on Google.com.

Here are a few different searches you can do:


Italy architecture history (I think that your teacher will be impressed if you add a paragraph or two about the history of Italian architecture.)

types of homes in italy

italian homes design

italianate architecture characteristics


Besides doing a web search, also search "Images" for pictures of the homes and add that to your paper, too. Also, don't just cut and paste, use your own words because if your instructor thinks the words are not your own, it's very easy to find your online source but typing phrases from your paper back into google.

Good luck. Sounds like an interesting project. Italians were fantastic craftsmen who appreciated beauty and created many beautiful buildings throughout the world.

Best wishes,
Lisa
