  Much of the year, the bungalow spreads out-of-doors. At the Berthelot home, four French doors open into the screened porch, which is comfortably furnished for relaxing, eating, and entertaining. In this Northwest Florida climate, the cooler autumn and gloriously floral spring are especially welcoming, but the shady setting, southern architecture, and a ceiling fam lure folks out even on hot summer days and nights.

  Wire-mesh screen was used on windows and doors in the Victorian era, but it was the Craftsman bungalow style that introduced the screen porch to the American home. Screen porches served to blur the distinction between outside and interior space and allowed the benefits of fresh air to be enjoyed without the annoyance of insects.
