Shingle Style & American Arts & Crafts

Shingle Style, unique to U.S., evolves from explorations of New England colonial architecture combined with English Queen Anne

Picturesque, rambling, irregular, covered with wooden shingles

American Arts and Crafts follows English principles

More individualistic, more diverse influences, more democratic

Similar ideals & social transformation advocated for middle class & wealthy

Character varies by region & designer, builder, entrepreneur, mail-order company

Image—simplicity, hand-made

Concepts

Shingle Style—roots in 17th century New England & English Queen Anne architecture

Defining characteristics—shingles, additive or rambling shapes, broad roofs

Shingles unify irregular shapes & massing

American Arts and Crafts

From concepts of Pugin, Ruskin, Morris & others

Shared principles, not unified style

More diverse & regional expressions

Less likely to reject machine so democratized design—custom architect-designed homes to mail order cottages

Also Craftsman, Mission, & Prairie Styles

Characteristics and Motifs

Both favor styles, forms, details of Middle Ages

Asymmetry, irregularity, verticality, simplicity

Non literal interpretation—seeks to capture essence of past

Shingle Style—shingles cover walls, columns, details

American arts & crafts architecture, interiors, furniture, decorative arts—unity

Simplicity, honesty, revealed structure, suitability to purpose, truth in materials, vernacular traditions, harmony with landscape, handcrafted look

Naturalistic colors, motifs; practicality, function, efficiency

Motifs—flowers, trees, foliage, animals, geometric motifs, Gothic details, Oriental images

43.1

Architectural Details: Stained glass window, Robie House, 1909-1910; Chicago, Illinois; Frank Lloyd Wright, and stair detail, David B. Gamble House, 1907-1908; Pasadena, California; Greene and Greene. American Arts and Crafts

Architecture  Shingle Style

Appeals to newly wealthy leisured class, especially for vacation homes, resorts

Recalls but not shackled by the past in freedom of expression, informality, continuity of texture

Mostly residential, some hotels, other structures

Shingles on nearly every surface most evident characteristic

Asymmetry, irregular massing, horizontality, gables, towers, bay windows, porches, multiple roofs

More continuity than Queen Anne but calmer, quieter, free-form character

Many influences—New England Colonial, English Queen Anne, Romanesque Revival, Japan

No corresponding interior or furniture style

Architecture  American Arts & Crafts

Simple, honest, emphasis on structure & function, vernacular traditions, close ties to landscape & location, naturalistic colors & motifs, handcrafted appearance

Same principles as in England, but wider diversity with strong regionalism & individuality

Craftsman Houses—follow principles of G. Stickley, great promoter of Arts and Crafts

Shown in The Craftsman, diversity in style & type

Prairie Style—fully integrated custom houses by Frank Lloyd Wright

Reflect his ideas of Arts & Crafts, Organic architecture

Bungalow—small, single story house type for middle class

43.2

Old Faithful Inn and Interior, Yellowstone National Park, 1903-1904; Wyoming; Robert Reamer. American Arts and Crafts.

The massive, seven-story lobby with walls of raw log surrounding a sixteen-foot-square fireplace of rough-cut rhyolite, vernacular building style, light from the traditionally dark and dank log cabin, through dormers scattered across the inn’s great sloping roof. As the light sprinkled down filtered through gnarled and twisted branches used for railings. The tall, airy space combined with the logs, lacy accents, and sunlight blur the boundary.

43.3a (1 of 2)

First Church of Christ Scientist, 1910-1912; Berkeley, California; Bernard Maybeck. American Arts and Crafts.

43.3a (2 of 2)

First Church of Christ Scientist nave, 1910-1912; Berkeley, California; Bernard Maybeck. American Arts and Crafts.

Long Description:

The roof trusses and concrete pillars in the tracery are stained and decorated with modeled ornament and flat stencil work. Natural and artificial light improve the structure, and different shades of translucent glazing create the desired effect.

43.4a

Long Description:

The house boasts multiple porches, including three large sleeping porches. The first level of the home's exterior includes handmade brick and terra cotta terraces that flank the walkway up to the front door. Round, tapered beams extend on the exterior to support the extended porches. Heavy layers of shingles insulate the house, stone, and brickwork. Hanging exterior lanterns accent the grounds from beams.

43.5b

David B. Gamble House stair hall, 1907-1908; Pasadena, California; Charles Sumner Greene and Henry Mather Greene. American Arts and Crafts.

43.6a

Frederick C. Robie House, 1909-1910; Chicago, Illinois; Frank Lloyd Wright. Prairie Style.

Long Description:

The house has roof eaves, continuous bands, a horizontal line, and the exterior walls are double-wythe construction of a brick core with an iron-spotted Roman brick veneer. It has a mortar with horizontal lines and vertical joints with a brick-colored design in the gates surrounding the outdoor spaces that enclose the garage courtyard.

43.6b

Frederick C. Robie House floor plans, 1909-1910; Chicago, Illinois; Frank Lloyd Wright. Prairie Style.

43.6c

Frederick C. Robie House dining room, 1909-1910; Chicago, Illinois; Frank Lloyd Wright. Prairie Style.

43.7

Bungalow, 1900s-1920s and “The Winona,” 1910; Sears, Roebuck and Company mail-order bungalow.

Interiors

Architect or builder designed & middle class integrate architecture, interiors, furnishings into unified whole

Informal or vernacular feeling, intimate scale, open space, asymmetrical arrangements, horizontality, rectangular shapes, straight lines

Function & individuality important

Visual continuity among rooms, informal materials & finishes, rough or natural textures, warmth, light

Vary from totally designed environments of Wright or Greene brothers to mail-order furnishings of middle class

43.8

43.11

Lighting: Candlesticks, hanging lantern, and lamps, 1900-1915. United States. American Arts and Crafts.

Furnishing and Decorative Arts

May be architect-designed for totally designed environments (Wright, Greene Brothers); mass-produced in factories (Stickley); hand-made in cooperatives or utopian communities (Roycroft)

Similar principles—rectangular form & shape, revealed joints & structure; honest use of materials; structural emphasis; distinctive joinery

Interiors have few pieces of furniture for simplicity & openness

Custom design furniture relates to the architecture

Mass-produced follows Arts & Crafts principles but lacks theoretical underpinnings
