Architectural Style Profile: Craftsman
One of the most popular architectural styles for homes in Rowlett TX is Craftsman. Although the Craftsman style originated in the late 1800’s, it has endured throughout the years.
Craftsman style is so named because it originally focused on the craftsmanship of hand-made materials, including interior décor elements such as furniture and lamps. Craftsman-style homes were designed to be more comfortable and down-to-earth than the elaborate Victorian mansions that dominated streetscapes during the second half of the 1800s. Modern interpretations of Craftsman designs have refined the style and brought it up to date with new materials, fresh colors and cleaner lines.
Hallmarks of the style include gabled roofs, decorative roof brackets or exposed rafter ends, a mixture of exterior materials such as siding with shingles, and porches with square or tapered posts. Craftsman-style homes are meant to be cozy, inviting and relaxing family homes.
