National Historic Landmark - Craftsman Farms

Craftsman Farms is the former home and school of Gustav Stickley, one of the leaders of the Arts and Crafts movement in America.

Established in 1908, the farm-school was in operation until 1915.

Stickley produced a new architectural style and a strikingly simple kind of furniture that profoundly influenced taste at the beginning of the 20th century.

His belief in a simple design, natural materials and careful craftsmanship gave a lasting legacy to American architecture, interior design, and aesthetics.
