Noble residential house in Roman style - Who builds something like this?

For many years now I have been fascinated by ancient architecture, whether based on virtual reconstructions, actually still existing buildings like the Pantheon in Rome, or the Maison Carrée in Nimes, etc., or neoclassical replicas like La Madeleine in Paris, etc. Surely there are many other styles that also have their charm, but I have always wondered why nowadays so little is actually built in that style anymore.

Good question, it also surprises me. Even the sewer running down the middle of the street and the gladiator games have disappeared...

and the gladiator games have disappeared...

Yes, lions against Christians - that’s when the sports show was still exciting :-)

I find antique columns on a single-family house to look very flashy and out of place. It requires a stately estate for it to be appropriate.

I recommend the website "McMansion Hell" on this topic – of course focused on the USA, but you can also take away quite a bit in general. And it is amusing as well.

I have now looked at the example buildings...

THOSE were not residential houses back then. Haha.... no people lived in religious buildings back then, no people live in churches now, and presumably no people will live in St. Marien churches in the future either.

wieso heutzutage eigentlich nur noch so wenig in jener Stilrichtung gebaut wird.

I hope your question has ultimately been answered.

No matter what, it would be an interesting project!

What is sold today as "Bauhaus style" has nothing to do with the "Bauhaus" as such, nor with the basic idea behind the master houses in Dessau. Large windows and white facades apparently suffice for builders as proof: yes, we are building in Bauhaus style. Therefore, I would also have no problem if someone decorates a Mediterranean city villa from a catalog with various historical design elements of ancient Rome on the facade and thus creates their own Roman house. Please don’t immediately speak badly of everything!
