  The bungalow style can be traced to India, where it was used by the British in the 19th century to designate a house type that was one story high and had large, encircling porches. Low houses with wide roofs and deep arches were common in Bengal. Our word is a British corruption of the Hindu adjective meaning 'belonging to Bengal'.
• 
  In 1909, in his Craftsman Homes, Gustav Stickley sought to tell what the style was all about, declaring that a bungalow was a "house reduced to its simplest form," one that "nevr fails to harmonize with its surroundings, because its low broad proportions and lack of ornamentation give it a character so natural and unaffected that its seems to blend into any landscape".
• 
  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.
