The craftsman and victorian era homes are still in high demand and their details are currently integrated into new home construction.

THE VICTORIAN

The Victorian era really encompasses many different types of architecture and were built around the same historical era, the rule of Queen Victoria. This style was fueled by the industrial revolution and featuring dramatic window designs, turrets and sweeping staircases. There are many different types of Victorian home styles, such as: Queen Anne, Tudor and Gothic Revival. These homes represented a shift in the demographics of cities in the U.S. and Europe. Traditionally, the poor lived in the more rural areas and with the industrial revolution, many poorer families were able to move into the city and buy homes. The design was meant to be elegant but accessible, and not necessarily for the very wealthy.

THE CRAFTSMAN

The American Craftsman school of design actually sprung out of the Victorian era and was focused on the natural world. The masters, like Frank Lloyd Wright, started what was known as the “prairie school” and sought to design structures that appeared to fit seamlessly into the landscape. The exposed eaves were a large part of the movement and symbolized a backlash of the industrial revolution in which everything was manufactured. The Craftsman movement sought to glorify the American worker and the idea of quality, handcrafted homes. The windows of the Craftsman movement are some of the most striking of the 20th century. Frank Lloyd Wright and his contemporaries were passionate about creating designs in glass and they still remain that way to this day.
