	Wisconsin's state building was a departure from the ordinary semi-classic style of architecture prevalent in 1904 exposition buildings, as it was conceived with an English domestic style. The two-story structure, with its plastered walls and red gable roofs, amid the green foliage, provided a charming effect, in contrast to the more stately architecture. It was 90 by 50 feet and was dedicated on May 29.

	~~==Etymology==~~		High on the [[Plateau of States]], the Wisconsin building was built in the English style of domestic architecture, being two stories high with wide verandas on each side. Exquisitely appointed and handsomely furnished reception rooms were open for the entertainment of guests.

	==~~Before the Fair~~==		==Description==
			The State of Wisconsin determined on an innovation, and it worked it out in a picturesque building after the English domestic style. Its

			The main room opens up through the second floor to the roof, and about it, at the level of the second floor, passes a balcony from which entry is secured to eleven private chambers. A staircase ascends from below and divides to right and left to reach the balcony. Just to the right sits a Conover grand piano.

			The main reception room had wainscoting stained a rich brown to the tops of the doors and windows. Above this, to the stairways and first floor ceiling contained a wide tapestry frieze in which the dense forests of the North were depicted. From the balcony hung an array of fine rugs, and others cover part of the polished floor.

and pottery clays were in the Palace of Mines. Their Forestry display included a great variety of polished woods. Wisconsin made its best record in the display in the Agricultural Palace, which was made up of agricultural products of the state and of butter and cheese exhibits.
