The Arts & Crafts Revival

ARTS & CRAFTS IS ABOUT living with beauty every day. Art is not just for paintings and sculpture; the hand-embroidery on a sofa pillow is art, too. Why shouldn’t our lamps and our chairs, our kitchen bowls and door hardware be beautiful? As for the architecture: Who doesn’t love wood, motifs taken from nature, craftsmanship without ostentation, an earthy palette, and organic rooms that promise serenity? If you are building, adding to, or remodeling a house in the Arts & Crafts spirit, this is the guide you need. You’ll be introduced to the different idioms of Arts & Crafts—English, Craftsman, California Bungalow, Prairie School—as well as the work that defines the Revival. The people and companies we list display a commitment to a deliberate Arts & Crafts approach. Their new work…

The Arts & Crafts Revival

PRESERVATION AND RENEWAL FOR A CLASSIC

As Seattle’s population burgeoned, a local developer hired the Olmsted Brothers firm, in 1905, to design a park-like neighborhood, with curving, tree-lined boulevards, on what had been the site of logging activity and sawmills, southeast of downtown. The area was named Mount Baker owing to its views north over Lake Washington to that towering volcano in the Cascade Mountains. An enclave of picturesque bungalows and handsome Arts & Crafts-era homes soon were built. Leslie and Paul Santarelli came to the neighborhood in 2018. They’d been looking for a larger family home, something with period charm. This house, a Craftsman semi-bungalow built in 1912, had character intact—with handsome fir wainscoting and trim, box-beam ceilings, leaded-glass windows, a built-in bench in the entry hall, Art Nouveau-style art glass pendants, a fanciful cutout balustrade,…

DUANE TIMM Bassett & Vollum Davenport, Iowa (563) 323-4077 bassettandvollum.com WHEN DUANE TIMM bought Bassett & Vollum, in 1992, he had no experience in hand-printing wallpaper. He learned the craft of screen printing after the sale, working nights with the two previous owners. “I like the pattern end of it,” he says. “Patterns just fall naturally for me. And I like the history behind it, too.” Bassett & Vollum was founded in Chicago by Emile Bassett and George Vollum, in 1936. A third partner, George Funke, brought in hand-blocked patterns from France and commissioned national and international designers—notably Chicagoan Edgar Miller—to design new collections. After Funke bought out his partners, the company reached its peak success in the 1950s. Now Bassett & Vollum is “a small two-horse shop,” says Timm, who has a helper on hand to…

The House that A POTTERY BUILT

“Although the house WAS A MESS,” SAYS ARCHITECT JOHN EIFLER, “THE LAYOUT AND MANY KEY ELEMENTS WERE INTACT. THE ENORMOUS WINDOW AND SEVERAL EYEBROW WINDOWS REMAINED. ORIGINAL GLASS SURVIVED. WE FOUND BOXES OF TILES …” WHEN, IN 1927, William Day Gates built his retirement home, in Crystal Lake, about 50 miles northwest of Chicago, he aptly named it “Trails End.” Gates, the founder and president of the American Terra Cotta & Ceramic Co., apparently used whatever materials were lying around at the factory. He lavishly applied tiles inside and out and even used packing materials in the structure of the house itself. Gates’ Illinois company made architectural terra cotta for more than 8,000 buildings in the United States and Canada, among them the socalled “jewel-box” banks designed by Louis Sullivan, Chicago’s Carson…

WINTER 2025 RICHARD LOPER El Dorado Woodworks Houston, Texas (713) 529-3880 eldoradowoodworks.com RICHARD LOPER HAD JUST MADE AND SOLD his first piece of furniture, in the early 1990s, when he happened to see a collection by the legendary studio designer Warren Hile. “I fell madly in love with his furniture,” he says. “I consider him the grandfather of the re-emergence of Arts & Crafts style.” Loper began building Arts & Crafts furniture, basing his initial designs on photographs of fine originals. His background as a professional photographer allowed him to “see” a piece just by looking at a photograph, he says. Once he had the dimensions, “I could go into a computer drawing program, scale it, and get it within ¼" of what was in the picture.” Since then, the talented and dedicated crew at his company, El…

STEPHANIE YOUNG

WINTER 2025 STEPHANIE YOUNG Calmwater Designs Plaistow, N.H. calmwaterdesigns.com ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO, Stephanie Young was photographing an exhibition of pottery when she realized she preferred certain pieces over the others. She wondered, did they resonate because of their proportions? Studying the measurements of various pots, she discovered those she preferred followed the Golden Ratio. “It’s the beautiful geometry that’s used in the best architecture in the world, the best churches and mosques … and it’s inherent in nature.” Since then, she’s used that sacred geometry in every aspect of the porcelain vessels she creates, from the foot to the widest part of the body to the shoulder, neck, and rim. Vessels are thrown on a wheel and allowed to dry to a specific moisture content. After some contemplation, she sketches—freehand, without measurements—lightly on the surface. After a…

THE CA. 1920 row house, in the Fairmount neighborhood of Philadelphia, needed major repairs; it had been gutted by a fire in the 1970s. The subsequent remodeling made no attempt at a period look: “It was a DIY ‘Mediterranean’-style job with tiled counter tops and harvest-gold appliances,” says homeowner Lynne Gery; she and her husband, Daniel Womer, bought the house in 1986. “I’d approached a few contractors over the years,” Lynne explains, “but I never met anyone I felt comfortable with. So we procrastinated.” • Lynne found Airy Kitchens through their Instagram posts. “They caught my eye because theirs were different from standard kitchen-designer renovations. “I had the impression that [designer Sean Lewis] devised something original for each client.” Airy Kitchens specializes in period-inspired design for old houses in the greater…

a trio of baths DESIGNED FOR A 1926 TUDOR

CURVED AND GRACEFUL, THE STAIRCASE INSPIRED MANY FEATURES OF THE RENOVATION. A GUEST BATH IS TUCKED BENEATH THE STAIR. DESIGNING WITH curves Curving plaster walls feature prominently in this Tudor Revival house, softening rooms and adding interest. Designer Sheila Mayden offers these tips on designing curves. • PAY ATTENTION TO PROPORTION Whether it’s an arched doorway, a curved backsplash, or a rounded kitchen island, scale and proportions determine design success. Start by drawing the curved detail to scale using computer software or on paper, or make a cardboard cutout or even draw on the wall to make sure the element’s scale and proportions are in balance. • KEEP IN MIND MATERIAL CONSTRAINTS Specific, synthetic architectural mouldings are designed to be applied to curves; smaller mosaic tiles are easier to install along a contour than a…

Although Bigland had no previous experience running a brassware factory, he instantly knew he wanted to take it on. “For me, it was a natural, instant attachment.” The biggest draw were the workers themselves. Many had been at the plant for decades and possessed nearly irreplaceable skills and craftsmanship: “I thought it would be criminal…

All of our stuff is forged. It’s stronger, it’s thicker, the surface has fewer imperfections. The details are better.” Brass components are also more durable than the stamped and pressed hardware from the early-20th century. Forged brass is made by pressing red-hot brass under up to 2…

tHINK OF IT: as a boy growing up in Pasadena, California, Dyke Messler had lunch at his grandparents’ house on Sundays. “I spent Christmas and birthdays there, too,” he says. Messler’s grandmother’s name was Gamble. Yes: His great-grandparents were David and Mary Gamble, who had commissioned the architects Greene & Greene to design their winter residence, which was built in 1908. The Gamble House is a masterpiece of Arts & Crafts residential architecture, one of the houses by Greene & Greene referred to as “ultimate bungalows.” But for Messler, the cozy house was just “my grands’. They let us run and explore, nothing was off-limits to us kids.” He says the house, with its exquisite joinery and craftsmanship, its Japanese-inspired design, became a discovery experience for him. Following the death of their parents…
