Architecture is much more than style, but an important factor in the construction of bungalows was their ability to meet owners' functional requirements while giving them what had previously been limited to the wealthy few: the latest in design.

Bungalows reflected the whole range of architectural movements of their day, from Queen Anne to Arts and Crafts, Tudor to Prairie and Pueblo, Spanish to English Colonial Revival, and even Moderne. These styles share a conscious search for the supposed simplicity of preindustrial times. All were meant to counter the excess of the Victorian period by returning to the past when handicrafts displayed the laborer's personal involvement in the work. It is easy to see how the bungalow-whose existence was defined on the grounds of restoring family values-fit beautifully into the Arts and Crafts movement. It would bring style to all the people whatever their economic or social status.
