Bungalow The Ultimate Arts & Crafts
Home by Jane Powell
Much More Than Just A Coffee Table Book
Bungalow: The Ultimate Arts & Crafts Home is the definitive compilation of
Arts & Crafts architecture, philosophy, and architectural details. Bungalow
expert Jane Powell examines a variety of bungalows and Arts & Crafts
homes across the U.S. and Canada, exploring and dissecting the best to
come up with a book that defines the very nature of the bungalow itself.
From a sleeping porch to a claw footed tub, to hallmark uses of wood,
stone, and tile, the insightful text is accompanied by Linda Svendsens
detailed and expressive photography. With a brief history of the arts &
crafts movement included, Powells latest offering is the perfect gift for
bungalow owners, Arts & Crafts enthusiasts, and those looking to restore
old or build new. Go deeper into the world of Arts & Crafts, and see exactly
what makes a great bungalow design-from interior design to colors,
architectural elements to the littlest details.

Personal Review: Bungalow The Ultimate Arts & Crafts Home by
Jane Powell
This is my first contact with Powell/Svendsen's books, and while it is
indeed coffee table size (it needs to be large to accommodate the beautiful
photography)it is so charming and readable that, without so intending, I
READ it (in one sitting, yet). We have several other books of gorgeous
bungalows, many with the same houses as subjects, with accomanying
commentary equivalent to dry stale cornflakes; this one is crumpets and
cream. Like others documenting bungalow style architecture, this book is
not intended as a construction or instruction manual, but as inspiration. For
admirers of bungalow style and for those seeking a picture to replace the
thousand words BUNGALOW is an easy choice.
