Long identified with California, today Craftsman-style structures can be seen as far east as New York state. Intricate woodwork gives them the look of timeless handcraftsmanship, and rustic material tie them to the earth. Exposed beams, rafter tails, and braces turn construction details into built-in ornament. Broad sloping roofs with shady overhangs signify the very idea of shelter. Stone-covered foundations and posts announce their link to nature. Generous porches blur the lines between indoors and out.
