Adair Homes Introduces Craftsman Exteriors to Idaho Falls

Adair Homes is Bringing a New Wave of Charm to the Idaho Falls Area! 

Get ready for a fresh era of custom home design as Adair Homes offers homeowners in Idaho Falls the opportunity to build new construction that seamlessly blends modern comfort with the timeless appeal of Craftsman architecture.

Craftsman homes, rooted in the American Craftsman movement of the early 20th century, are known for their distinctive features. With low-pitched roofs, exposed beams, and signature tapered columns supporting wide front porches, Craftsman exteriors exude a sense of warmth with a focus on natural materials and handcrafted forms. The entire movement began as a clear departure from the overtly detailed Victorian architecture of the day.

Craftsman architecture, popularized by American furniture designer Gustav Stickley and inspired by the British Arts and Crafts movement, has stood the test of time. The style emerged between 1900 and 1929, and its influence continues to resonate in the architecture of today. Adair Homes' introduction of Craftsman exteriors to Idaho Falls pays homage to this enduring style, offering residents an opportunity to build not just a new home but a timeless work of art that seamlessly blends the past and present. With a commitment to craftsmanship and design, Adair Homes invites you to explore the possibilities of creating your dream Craftsman-style custom home in the picturesque setting of Eastern Idaho.
