There are many kinds of porches. 4 x 4 feet plain wood platforms to 12 x 20 screen porches complete with chandeliers and pool tables. and they aren't all in front of (single family detached) houses. Apartment buildings might have them. Arguably, the landing at the top of an external stair might be called a porch. - bill, 2004 Dec 9, 03:36 UTC
- Welldone, Bill, that's just what this article needed. You are absolutely right and I'll leave it to you to add further content. I had only got involved in this because the originator seemed somewhat concerned about his style. Dieter Simon 22:37, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Integral Porches
Not all porches project from a house.
"An integral porch is one whose floor is set within the main structure, rather than being attched to the house, as in a projecting porch. Also called an inset porch." From page 182 of American Architecture by Cyril M. Harris, published 1998 by Norton.
