ArchitectureWeek Description
In The Seattle Bungalow, Janet Ore modifies the common notion that architectural change flows only from the design elite - the architects, domestic reformers, and planners who advocate for changes in domestic architecture - and argues that ordinary people played a crucial role in creating the bungalow. Through their growing power as consumers, modest-income families influenced the physical form of early twentieth-century houses and suburban landscapes.
