Craftsman Style is an architectural and design movement that emerged in the early 20th century, primarily in the United States. It emphasizes handcrafted details, natural materials, and a connection to nature. Characteristic features include low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, wide eaves, and built-in furniture, all designed to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. This style is often associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement, which sought to counter industrialization by promoting traditional craftsmanship. Gustav Stickley, a key figure in the movement, popularized Craftsman homes through his magazine, showcasing designs that celebrated simplicity and functionality while highlighting the beauty of natural materials.
