#592. Turquoise Facade: Classic Craftsman-Style House with Contrasting Details

The image showcases a classic American Craftsman-style house, a design that was highly popular in the early 20th century. This two-story structure is painted in a soft turquoise color, which gives it a gentle, harmonious appearance amid the surrounding greenery.

The facade features characteristic Craftsman elements: a wide, projecting front porch with supporting columns, overhanging eaves, and exposed rafter tails. Particularly noteworthy is the contrasting trim—burgundy shutters on the second-floor windows create a striking accent against the main wall color.

The brick chimney and foundation are important architectural elements that emphasize the traditional design. Large windows, especially on the ground floor, provide abundant natural light and create a visual connection with the well-maintained garden. The horizontal siding cladding is typical of this architectural style.

The landscape design complements the architecture: flowering shrubs and perennial plants frame the house, creating a cozy atmosphere. The brick retaining wall in front of the house functionally divides the space, adding depth and texture to the entire composition.
