A few years back there was an issue with a newly constructed Arts and Crafts style house. The 2nd story was built into a high piched roof with a shed dormer in the front. The garage was detached on the left side and connected by a breeze-way.The front porch ran the lenth of the front of the house and was covered by the roof eaves. Interior trim used paint grade rather than traditional dark wood, but replicated the arts and crafts style well. Does anyone know of this house? I need to know what issue it is and if anyone out there has it. It was on the front cover of the issue, I am pritty sure. Thank You in advance. |

I don't remember the issue, but FH did a whole book on Craftsman Style houses. The one you're referring to might be in there.
It's a good book.
Thank you Oregon-Bob,
I do have that book. Great book, but the house I am looking for isn't in there. Thanks for the help though.
I am sure I have that issue around here somewhere. I must have, I never throw anything away that I need, LOL.
Have you tried e-mailing Andy or any of the other editors of the mag, they can probably track it down pretty quick for you.Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark, Professionals built the Titanic.
