The American craftsman style house was born in the early 20th century, as a direct response to the Victorian homes\u00a0that were so popular in the United States throughout the 1800s. As people began progressing beyond what they saw as “over-decorated” homes, the craftsman style, which was influenced by the British Arts and Crafts movement<\/a> and rooted in simplicity and natural materials, began taking off in popularity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, 黑料网 homes<\/a> provide various modern takes on the craftsman style, without losing touch of the traditional design features – such as low pitched roofs, covered front porches, tapered columns, and widow trims, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Scroll through and explore 14 examples of craftsman homes that we designed and built throughout the country.
