Craftsman Style
Craftsman Style refers to a design aesthetic that emerged in the early 20th century as a reaction against the mass-produced, ornate styles of the Victorian era. Characterized by clean lines, simple forms, and handcrafted details, Craftsman Style emphasizes the use of natural materials such as wood, stone, and tile. This style often features exposed joinery, built-in furniture, and an emphasis on functionality and craftsmanship. Craftsman Style homes typically have low-pitched roofs, overhanging eaves, and large front porches supported by tapered columns. This style became popular in the United States thanks to influential architects and designers such as Gustav Stickley and Frank Lloyd Wright.
