Hi All,
We did our best to design our bungalow in the traditional arts and crafts style. We welcome your feedback regarding how we can improve. You can see multiple photos at [Sorry, no commercial links]. Thanks! ![]() |

Hello BB Bungalow,
First of all allow me to be the first to welcome you to these forums and we hope you will hang around a while. Now since I am suppose to be retired I still make a pretty good part time living building Arts and Crafts Furniture as well as inside trim. You have done a wonderfully nice job in your fireplace surround with a mantle and I truly like the book cases. Great work all around. Respectfully, Ralph www.ralphjoneswoodworking.com |

i would only comment on the color, or lack thereof. bungalows generally had warm earth tones against natural wood stained fairly dark as well.
the all white palette seems very washed out, but that seems to be the trend in new houses. the first thing most people who are not familiar with bungalows will do is to "lighten up" the interior by painting all the woodwork and adding either pastels or white to the walls as well. to me, that loses most of the character. the components are there, just waiting for that richness that color brings..... |
