Greene and Greene’s work, especially the Gamble House, set the standard for how wood gets treated in a Craftsman interior: joinery shown instead of hidden, every surface finished by hand. Most of the Craftsman houses we see are more modest than that. They’re bungalows in neighborhoods like Bungalow Heaven, but they borrowed the same ideas: exposed beams, built-in cabinetry, paneled walls, and doors with real thickness. Alongside those, you get Spanish Revival houses with heavy plank doors, and mid-century homes where the paneling is the best thing about the place. What nearly all of them have in common is that someone has already been at the wood. A coat of paint in the sixties, a bad stain job in the eighties, a replacement door that doesn’t match. Undoing that without damaging what’s underneath is most of what we do here.
