Room AI

Honest wood, handmade joinery, quiet warmth.

Craftsman

Craftsman style, from the Arts and Crafts movement, values honest materials and visible workmanship: oak with the grain showing, built-in shelves and benches, square-cut details and warm earthy colors. It is sturdy and calm. It suits houses with woodwork worth keeping and anyone tired of flat-pack.

A living room in the Craftsman style

What makes it Craftsman

The five things to get right. Everything else is taste.

Craftsman color palettes
  • Palette Warm earth tones, olive, rust, mustard, brown and cream.
  • Materials Quarter-sawn oak, leather, hammered copper, art tile, stained glass in simple geometric patterns.
  • Furniture Mission-style pieces with straight lines and visible joints, a slatted bench, a leather armchair.
  • Textiles Wool, leather, stylized nature prints in muted colors, a Morris-style pattern used sparingly.
  • Lighting Mica or amber glass shades, hammered metal, warm bulbs.

Ordinary rooms, in Craftsman

Try first

Cheapest first. Each is something you could do this weekend, or say to Room AI now.

  1. 1 Strip or stain woodwork rather than painting it; the grain is the style.
  2. 2 Add one built-in look, a window seat or a bookcase that fills a wall, even if it is freestanding.
  3. 3 Choose earthy paint colors with some grey in them, olive and clay rather than bright green and orange.
  4. 4 Swap shiny handles for dark bronze or copper.

What spoils it

The three things that turn Craftsman into something else.

  • White-painted trim and glossy finishes.
  • Curvy or spindly furniture.
  • Bright, clean colors; Craftsman tones are muddy on purpose.
