Design and Building Trends Over the Last Century
1900’s – The typical 1900’s home was built not for décor but, more so for function. You would almost always see these homes built out of brick. Typically these homes were quite confined inside, the front parlor and kitchen would be the two largest rooms in the home. The front room would normally be styled with items that symbolized the families status, such as vases or statuettes, the kitchen is where, as today the meals were prepared, but more importantly the coal burning range was in there, which was important because it was the main heat source for the house. Bedrooms in your typical 1900’s home would be very small and dimly lit; most children not only shared a room, but a bed as well. If you think your household could use another bathroom or two, be thankful you weren’t living in 1900; bathrooms were a status symbol, wealthier families would be lucky to have a tub, and toilets would rarely be found inside a home.
1910’s – The homes of 1910’s were quite similar to the homes of 1900, perhaps the only difference is this is when interior designs came into play. The home itself you would probably find wooden floors, paneled walls, the windows are likely to be stained glass, the most noticeable item in a 1910’s home in my opinion would be the fireplace, it would be the focus point of the room, very large hearth placed in an inglenook or recess, you would also notice the mantle to be carved and often there would be a motto above it. When it came to decorating these homes, this is when handmade items became very important, wooden handmade furniture, lots of copper and pewter would also be found in these homes. The most noticeable thing décor wise would have to be hands down the wallpaper, normally made with vegetable dyes and wood blocks.
1920’s – These years the homes started to make quite a change in design. The homes were now being built noticeably smaller than those of previous years. A new style of housing was also introduced, this was the bungalow, or as we sometimes now call them, ranchers. These are homes with all the living space on only one floor. These houses now had toilets as well. The most distinctive style was the Modern style. Normally the priority was purpose; they avoided decorations and focused on the use of chrome and glass. They would have flat roofs, white concrete walls, and large windows with iron frames. Rather than using decorative items home owners would decorate with their fireplace, furniture, wallpaper, and fabric, often of a brighter color.
1930’s – In the 1930’s you would still find quite simple architecture and style, mainly due to the fact that during World War II people just had more to worry about than interior decorating. You would find inside colors such as dull greens and browns. Houses tend to be in a semi-detached pairs and owned rather than rented. Due to the shortage of timber, the trussed roof was introduced, this is a factory made roof that requires little skill to erect, but provides no attic space. The more modern style of these years was called the sun-trap, the main goal for this style was to receive as much natural light as possible, so they introduced the big curved windows.
1940’s – Starting in 1940 there was a more modern or contemporary look. These would be one or two storey homes or even a split level home. They would have large windows, open floor plans, and horizontal lines with simple details. One of the most noticeable things you might see is the fact the front porches of the older homes pretty much vanish in the 1940’s homes. During the ‘40’s carpet becomes very common, as do the use of refrigerators. You would find a lot of yellow, metal canister sets, white enamel surfaces, pretty aprons, and chicken & rooster motifs in the kitchen.
1950’s – This era was all about open spaces. A lot of wood was used such as wood paneled walls, wood walls, although carpet was preferred these days. Very simple designs for the house itself, and the way it was decorated. You would probably see a lot of greens and yellows throughout the home. Also quite popular in decorating these homes were area rugs, lamps, and you guessed it…wallpaper.
1960’s – Oh the ‘60’s. As far as I’m concerned, you couldn’t have accused anyone of having “no taste” considering the “in thing” was to purposely combine colors that don’t match. Home designs haven’t changed much but interior designing has gone crazy! In most homes you would find shag rugs, also pop art and op art were very popular, pictures of icons, comic strips, etc… covered the walls and the use of pattern and color to simulate movement that op art delivered was everywhere, whether it be crazy mismatched colors or the oh so famous black and white, this was a very “far out” time.
1970’s – Similar to the ‘50’s in the sense that the more space the better, people were wanting big, bright, open spaces, lots of sundecks and porches were added onto homes of the ‘70’s. There was still a bit of color in decorating but quite calmer than the years in the ‘60’s. You would notice some homeowners remodeling older homes, or even converting, barns, clock towers, carriage houses, and stables into homes. Eclecticism in interior design continued to grow throughout the ‘70’s. Meaning people would use older styles and blend them into their new styles.
1980’s – Homes built during the 1980’s tend to be quite boxy, often homes had vaulted ceilings. Inside these homes you would find items such as the halogen lamp, and waterbeds in the bedrooms. Finally these are the years when people decided to invest in their kitchens, now used as a hub of the house, rather than just for function people would spend time entertaining there. You would see a lot of brass throughout the home, especially in the kitchen and bathroom.
1990’s – During the 1990’s it became imperative to build affordable housing, the most common were 2-story, split-level, and the condominium was becoming quite popular. You would most likely find a lot of homes with skylights in them. The décor you’d find inside the home would be very soft colors, lots of gadgets such as home theatres, automatic garage door openers, garbage disposals, intercom systems, and anything electronic. One of the biggest changes would be the main floor laundry rooms, as opposed to previous years where they would have been in the basement.
2000’s – The 2000’s are very much about status, you will find a lot of cosmetics added to homes outside and in, such as professionally landscaped property, lots of lights, additions, skylights, etc… you are sure to find condominiums to be the new “it”, they are everywhere, people are concerned about space so we build up rather than out. Inside of these homes are quite incredible actually, you’ll find items such as digital thermostats, digital ovens, anything digital. The use of Stainless Steel has become very common, beautiful light fixtures; a lot of homes have home offices in them, as more and more people are working from the comfort of their own homes. A lot of people think of their home as their own little museum where you can display all of what you’ve accomplished and we show who we are by the way e decorate our homes…can’t wait to see what the 2010’s have in store for us.
