It drew from the wood building traditions of Japan and <br />Switzerland as well as the medieval themes favored by the Arts and Crafts philosophers. Craftsman architecture stressed honesty of <br />form, materials, and workmanship, eschewing applied decoration in favor of the straightforward expression of structure. A new <br />appreciation of nature was evident in horizontal lines that reached out to embrace the landscape and the incorporation of capacious <br />porches into building plans. Primarily a residential style, Craftsman architecture can be identified by low pitched gable and hipped <br />roofs with exposed rafters and beams in deep overhangs; wood lap or shingle siding and an occasional use of stucco; extensive use of <br />stone or brick as a secondary material; horizontal emphasis apparent in roof lines, headers, and battered porch supports; and broadly <br />proportioned wood framed windows, often clustered in bands. Craftsman homes were built from circa 1902 until the early 1920s. <br /> <br />SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: <br /> <br />The Enderle House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its representation of the <br />distinguishing characteristics of the Craftsman style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as "Landmark" for its "unique <br />architectural significance" as a decoratively detailed example of the Craftsman style (Municipal Code, Section 30-2.2). <br /> <br />EXPLANATION OF CODES: <br /> <br />.
