conversations.value: The 1912 and 1915 Gustav Stickley Craftsman Furniture Catalogs
  The Athenaeum of Philadelphia is an independent research library with museum collections founded in 1814 to collect materials "connected with the history and antiquities of America, and the useful arts, and generally to disseminate useful knowledge." It is housed in a handsomely restored National Historic Landmark building near Independence Hall in the heart of the historic area of Philadelphia.
  As the collections expanded over the past 175 years, The Athenaeum refined its objectives. Today the library concentrates on nineteenth- and early twentieth-century social and cultural history, particularly architecture and interior design where the collections are nationally significant. The library is freely open to serious investigators, and it annually attracts thousands of readers: graduate students and senior scholars, architects, interior designers, museum curators and private owners of historic houses.
  In addition to 130,000 architectural drawings, 25,000 historic photographs and several million manuscripts, The Athenaeum's library is particularly rich in original works on architecture, interior design and domestic technology. In the latter area the publications of manufacturers and dealers in architectural elements and interior embellishments have been found to be particularly useful to design professionals and historic house owners who are concerned with the restoration or the recreation of period interiors. Consequently, many of the reprints in this series are drawn from this collection. The Athenaeum's holdings are particularly strong in areas such as paint colors, lighting fixtures, wallpaper, heating and kitchen equipment, plumbing and household furniture.
  THE PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT that surged up in the wake of the excesses of the Gilded Age and the disruptions of America's sweeping industrialization found its expression not only politically—most notably in the major reforms of Theodore Roosevelt's administration—but also in such aesthetic manifestations as houses and interior furnishings. The style popularly (if carelessly) known by such diverse names as Craftsman, Mission and Arts & Crafts was, in the context of its times, revolutionary. From the welter of ornamented historical styles that the later nineteenth century favored—Renaissance Italianate, English baronial, French rococo and the rest—its emergence came as a bracing shock.

conversations.value: LIVING ROOM WITH GLIMPSE OF DINING ROOM AND FIREPLACE NOOK IN BUNGALOW NO. 129: THE USE OF BRICK IN INTERIOR FINISH IS OF ESPECIAL INTEREST AS A MEDIUM OF STRUCTURAL DECORATION.
  Craftsman house No. 129, shown on these pages, is a typical brick bungalow, published in THE CRAFTSMAN for February, 1912. Both interior and exterior show an interesting use of rough-surfaced brick in tones of red and brown, giving a rich sense of warm friendly color; while the built-in furnishings and beam and panel treatment of the interior serve as a link between the structural features and other furniture and fittings. As to the floor plans, a study of them will show a natural, convenient arrangement with no waste space,—features which distinguish all Craftsman houses.
  CRAFTSMAN CONCRETE BUNGALOW, NO. 131: AN ECONOMICAL FORM OF CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION IS USED HERE: PUBLISHED IN THE CRAFTSMAN, MARCH, 1912, WITH DESCRIPTION AND DIAGRAMS OF THE PROCESS.
