A derivative of the Arts and Crafts movement, bungalow home designs call attention to a horizontal link between the house and the land surrounding it. The use of natural, local materials and colors also support this home-earth connection. Overall, bungalows project a quaint and homey feeling, both artistic and sensible at the same time. The craftsman style has similar characteristics of the bungalow design.
Common features for a Craftsman Bungalow style home:
- One or one-and-a-half stories
- Low, sloping roof either gabled (front or side) or hipped, often with wide overhangs
- Exposed roof structure (beams, rafters)
- Exterior proportions balanced rather than symmetrical in arrangement
- Modest front porch
- A front stoop is a common element
- Focus on a garden, even if small
- Open, informal floor plan
- Prominent hearth
- Wood details inside
