excellent guide for bungalow renovation

great photography and good source of ideas for updating bungalows and craftsman style houses - highly recommended.

Great design ideas

I've always been in love with bungalows, the images they invoke are warm and inviting, and since I'm in the process of designing my own home, I'm also on the look-out for innovative ideas. This book didn't dissapoint. So many different styles lend each of the homes featured between the covers of this publication an air of individuality and it gives us a glimpse into the personalities behind their creation. I'm finding this particular book to be a great learning tool as I try putting my own personality into my own home design.

perfect book-whether you own a bungalow or apt.

I was impressed by the intelligence and aesthetic of the book. Having grown up in a bungalow, sentimentally I bought the book. However, I found that elements of the design ideas and way the authors approached the book was applicable to my life, and my current home. The writing is terrific, the pictures are gorgeous and the whole thing is great. i actually keep it on my coffeetable....and I live in a condo!

berkeley bungalow

I was happy to find this book as I have been looking to update my berkeley bungalow for some time. Instead of getting a 'cookie-cutter' contractor, I took the advice of the authors, and feel confident in the changes I'm making to my great bungalow---and also confident that I am maintaining the lines of my home---what drew me to it in the first place.

Good book for those building new

I am building a new house and I'm looking at many books on Bungalows, Mission Style, and Arts and Crafts. This was one of my favorites because it related more to new construction. It has many pictures and lots of ideas. I'd love to have an old bungalow with all the beautiful woodwork, but I can't. This gave my ideas on how to incorporate the bungalow look into a new home.
