Editorial Reviews:

Matching Paul Duchscherer's authoritative text with striking photographs by Douglas Keister--the team that made The Bungalow so successful--Inside the Bungalow will thrill Arts and Crafts aficionados. Chapters devoted to all aspects of bungalow interior design include the front door, with its sense of arrival; the fireplace, a major Arts and Crafts symbol of hearth and home; the living room, hub of bungalow living; the den, study, or library; the kitchen and dining room; and bedrooms that range from nursery to sleeping porch. Finishing touches of the period abound: textiles, pillows, wall treatments, lighting fixtures, millwork detailing, art glass, and more. A special section shows eager enthusiasts how mundane interiors have been transformed into beautiful, exciting Arts and Crafts environments.

User Comments about the Inside the Bungalow: America's Arts and Crafts Interior

Great source for anyone who is considering doing and architectural project, either interior or exterior, with an Arts and Crafts feeling.

This book contains big color photographs of interiors; reference guide at the end of the book detailing resources of Arts and Crafts literature and furnishings

Lots of ideas and examples to pull a room together. If you're like me I am always looking at ways to incorporate colors, designs and arts and crafts style into our 1922 Chalet Arts and Craft's home. This is a user friendly book to have close at hand. I especially appreciate all the colorful pictures and the textiles shown. I refer to the book frequently and I am pleased I bought it. Paint, stenciling and wallcoverings being modest in cost and are realistic changes that are indeed affordable.

For newly into the arts and crafts movement and restoring our bungalow, this book concentrates exactly where we needed it to -- the interior. Excellently focused. From shots of wonderful restored homes to our favorite section (before and after), this book will become our favorite resource.

What was especially dramatic was the before and after pix of rooms/homes. This book has been such a wonderful inspiration for us. As soon to be purchasers of an 'arts & crafts' home in the Hudson Valley (NY), my husband and I never heard of 'arts & crafts' style homes. The book is filled with color photos, wonderful ideas, themes and history. You won't be disappointed in this purchase. We will borrow from what we've learned and put those concepts, colors etc to great use in our new home.
