The Essence of the Craftsman Bungalow
Originating in the late 19th century as a response to the ornate Victorian aesthetic, Craftsman bungalows embody the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement. Characterized by their low-slung profiles, sweeping rooflines, and an emphasis on natural materials, these homes exude an unparalleled sense of warmth, simplicity, and functionality.
The hallmark features of a Craftsman bungalow include:
- Low-pitched, gabled rooflines: Creating a sense of horizontality and nestled-ness in the landscape.
- Exposed rafter tails: Extending beyond the roofline, adding a touch of rusticity and visual interest.
- Overhanging eaves: Providing shade and protection from the elements while enhancing the home's curb appeal.
- Natural materials: Wood, stone, and brick were commonly used for both exterior and interior finishes, creating a warm and inviting ambiance.
- Built-in cabinetry and woodwork: Custom-built cabinetry and woodwork added storage, functionality, and an undeniable charm to these homes.
