The Arts and Crafts movement in architecture sought to counter the dehumanizing effects of industrial mass production by reviving traditional craftsmanship, honest construction, and socially responsible design. Its buildings emphasized simplicity of form, truth to materials (exposed joinery and natural finishes), and ornament that grew from handcraft and nature rather than applied industrial decoration. Architects used local materials and vernacular forms, favored functional, human-scaled layouts, and designed houses to fit their site and landscape. Overall the movement promoted beauty through workmanship, moral and social improvement, and a close relationship between art, craft, and everyday life.
