Over the past few months, Timber Block has talked about, featured or posted each Craftsman home design in the collection. We wanted to find out which homes our followers loved the most.
First, let's define the meaning of a "Craftsman" home:
Homeowners who choose to build this style of home truly have an appreciation for fine architecture.
While some designs may or may not have the following attributes, typically you'll find these features in a Craftsman design:
- A beautiful porch, complete with thick columns - either round or square, made of stone, or mixed materials
- Low-pitched roofs
- Wide eaves and triangular brackets
- Exposed beams - inside and out
Where did the term come from?
The American Craftsman style, or the American Arts and Crafts movement, is an American domestic architectural, interior design, landscape design, applied arts, and decorative arts style and lifestyle philosophy that began in the last years of the 19th century. As a comprehensive design and art movement, it remained popular into the 1930s. However, in decorative arts and architectural design, it has continued with numerous revivals and restoration projects through present times. - Wikipedia
As we know, this popularity continued to gain traction in the world of architecture, and soon became one of the most sought-after home styles for today's homeowner.
