adj. - used to describe any single family, free standing house built AFTER colonial times in the United States, but still having atavistic design characteristics of actual colonial houses. Somehow this style represents about 80% of current housing stock, thus representing a stagnation in architectural design for the last 232 years.

A casual invitation / threat used by an individual that is not afraid of fucking someone up.

Contemporary architecture which mimics American Colonial architecture.
From the French, faux, meaning false.
