American Bungalow
or the Craftsman style, as the Arts and Crafts style came to be called in the United States, was first introduced in the 1890s when an interest in new forms of domestic architecture spread across the country, lasting through the 1920s. In 1897 a group of architects and designers in Boston organized an exhibition of contemporary crafts at Copley Hall with a focus on Arts and Crafts designs that were incorporated into bungalow interiors. Shortly thereafter, in the early 1900s, the designer Gustav Stickley introduced his publication The Craftsman, which featured furniture based on the Mission style to match these homes.
