Craftsman


Craftsman architecture is inherently a style emphasizing nature and craftsmanship that developed in reaction to the Industrial Era. No matter the size of the house, or wealth of its owner, early Craftsman and Bungalow homes were designed to create a cozy hand-made retreat; a sanctuary that would provide connection with nature and sustenance to the soul. We pay close heed to this philosophy that underlies the unique architectural elements of original Arts and Crafts homes, to guide us in designing new and remodeled homes in the Craftsman style. For some interesting history, and how it informs our design approach, read our Craftsman blog series here!
