STYLES

Craftsman Homes

This early 20th Century style, made famous during the Arts and Crafts movement and by such famous architects as Frank Lloyd Wright, emphasizes handcrafted stonework, woodwork and glass. It values simplicity and was a reaction to the ornate Victorian style that preceded it. It values simplicity and enjoys different interpretations around the world.

"The Craftsman-style colour aesthetic takes inspiration from the merging of house and nature. Integrate your home and the visual passage between interior and exterior through subtle, earth-related colours that enhance natural architectural features such as a stone façade or fireplace."
