Music has a bewildering number of genres and subgenres, and if anything, architecture has even more. Why? Because on top of all the historical and stylistic variations that music and architecture have, with buildings there is the additional factor: availability of local building materials.

Two buildings of local stone in Dundee, Scotland:-



The McManus Gallery, a Scottish Gothic Revival art gallery and public library, opened in 1895.


The Morgan Academy, a Scottish Baronial Revival boarding school, opened in 1866.
