Craftsman.

Craftsman homes have an alluring charm that many find irresistible. Created initially in response to the Industrial Revolution, this style sought to return to the simple, but finely-crafted designs made by artisans.

Natural elements define the Craftsman home. Tri Pointe Homes uses stone, wood, and brick to create a handcrafted feel to these attractive homes. Beautiful front porches detailed with decorative columns, low-pitched rooflines, and artisanal details add curb appeal. Interiors feature open floor plans, exposed columns that create a larger-than-life feel, and large windows that allow you to bring the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest inside.

Prairie.

Prairie homes are influenced by the Craftsman style, but in general are sleeker and more contemporary. Legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright championed the Prairie-style home, seeking an alternative to ornate Victorian homes. He created open floor plan designs and emphasized horizontal lines, rather than vertical. Key elements in Prairie homes include simple, natural materials like stone and wood, open flowing interiors, long flat roofs, rows of windows and a horizontal orientation.

You can find all three styles at various Tri Pointe Homes communities in the Greater Seattle Area. Homes built in Craftsman, Transitional Farmhouse, and Prairie styles complement the area’s natural setting. The fresh, modern homes are built for today’s way of life and reflect quality in every detail, from innovative architecture to designer touches.
