Arts and Crafts Architecture

The Arts and Crafts Movement was a style of decorative arts that originated in England from the 1880s-1930s. Insitgated by William Morris, an author and an artist, the Arts and Crafts Movement developed the most in the British Isles, but spread into Europe and North America. The movement encouraged the use of quality materials and true craftsmanship. It was really and anti-industrial movement and seems to be the first rebellious movement against standard society.
