The bungalow house plan style, and its close cousins the Craftsman and Prairie styles, lends itself to an easy and informal lifestyle, often coupled with well-wrought details. While often smaller than other contemporary house plans, bungalows make up in livability what they lack in square footage. A typical floor plan features an open living area, with bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms arranged for easily accessibility. The low-slung roof - often with multiple projections - gives the home a "built-in" feel on the right lot. The bungalow house plan, with its signature wide, inviting porch supported by rectangular columns, provides what amounts to an extra room, open to the street and bringing the outdoors into play in the occupants' lifestyle.
