California Bungalow In Winter Pasadena CA 1920s Stone Facade Red Roof Postcard
In Pasadena, California the California Bungalow emerged as a dominant residential form during the early 20th century, rooted in the Arts and Crafts movement and tied to the city\'s growth as a winter resort and middle‑class suburb between 1900–1930; characteristic features—low profiles, broad eaves, tapered porch supports often set on stone facades, landscaped gardens, curved driveways and period street lamps—shaped the historic neighborhoods of Pasadena during that era.
