Above: The
owners of this newly constructed craftsman style home, desiring
"something rustic" to remind them of their Midwest
roots, were attracted to the unpretentious style of the craftsman
design. Exterior details include fish scale siding, cultured
stone, and stucco and wood finishes. A recessed porch, open rafter
tails and taper-boxed columns contribute to the elevation's character.
Unique to the exterior finish is an iron screen door custom designed
to match the mahogany front door. The overall effect is a "snug"
look typical of the craftsman bungalow. |
