- Title
A Look at Pasadena Bungalows and Community-Building.
- Abstract
The article discusses how the city of Pasadena, California maintains a sense of community and identity in the shadow of Los Angeles, California through an examination of the bungalows constructed in the California Craftsman style. The constructing of 500 bungalows known as "Bungalow Heaven" provided an environment for community-building. The roots of the California bungalow-style home in the Arts and Crafts movement is analyzed. How the bungalow design was an ideal model for Pasadena city planners is discussed.
