Description: Florida Bungalow - ARCHITECTURE: In Florida, Bungalows were the most popular residential style during the first 30 years of the 20th century because of their affordability and accessibility. Home owners bought plans from publications like Bungalow Magazine and The Craftsman or ordered a kit from a catalog such as Sears, Roebuck & Company. Local carpenters built the homes and customized exterior features such as siding, roof material, decorative brackets and window fenestration. This customization makes each bungalow throughout the City unique! The oldest Bungalows in Orlando date to the early 1900s. Bungalows were the reigning architectural style during the Florida housing boom of the 1920s and remain one of the most popular architectural styles throughout all of Orlando’s residential historic districts. The porch is the most dominant feature of the Bungalow, which can be full or partial width. Typically one to two stories, common Bungalow details include low-pitched roofs, wide overhanging eaves, exposed roof rafters with decorative angles or patterns, decorative brackets and tapered square columns on piers. They can incorporate details of other architectural styles like the hand-crafted details of the Craftsman style, half-timbering of the Tudor Cottage and low-pitched roofs of the Prairie style. Bungalows can also include inspiration from Japanese, Spanish and European cultures. This White Border Era (1915-30) postcard is in good condition, but there is edge wear. C.T. American Art.
