Ranch Style Home Plans For Elegant, Affordable Living
Ranch style architecture originated in the United States in the 1920's, and it became very popular after World War II as cities expanded into suburbs and inexpensive tract homes were needed by a growing populace. Ranch style houses are most popular where land is inexpensive and the weather is mild, since these homes particularly lend themselves to outdoor living. The low, earth hugging look with clean, modern lines of the ranch style is derived from Frank Lloyd Wright's prairie style architecture.
Ranch style homes are usually long and low with a bare minimum of interior and exterior decoration. The idea is to create a casual and informal lifestyle, usually with access to the outdoors via large plate glass windows, sliding glass doors, and patios or decks. Ranch style home plans normally imply a single story construction with a low and long roof line, with a cross- or side- gabled or hip roof. Eaves are usually large and overhanging. Small ranch house plans tend to be simple rectangles; but there are larger designs which can be have L or U shapes surrounding a courtyard in the center visible from the living areas. Frequently there are sliding glass doors which open onto patios, or large picture windows in the living and dining areas. The design often includes an attached garage as well as patio area. Also, the exteriors are usually of brick, wood, or stucco with simple or rustic interior décor and exterior trim.
The basic idea behind the ranch style is that the major room areas in the house flow one into the other, rather than being small divided-up spaces as in other architectural styles. The access from the attached garage flows into the kitchen, to the dining area, to the living area, and to the bedrooms. The feeling of a ranch style house is one of openness and sweeping - sweeping vistas of the out-of-doors through picture windows and sliding glass panels, which open onto patios or porches where much summer living takes place. Also characteristic of the ranch style are open floor plans which permit rooms to serve multiple purposes. Ranch style houses frequently include separate family, living, and dining areas which can be converted as needed into entertaining or hobby areas, or into extra bedrooms when required. Although a single level ranch house plan with front porch or patio is the norm, there are also split level ranch houses and raised ranch houses which have more than one level of space. Also, the traditional simple and utilitarian interior décor is often embellished with accents typical of Colonial or Mediterranean architectural styles. The simplicity of the basic ranch style design and trim provides a good base for many different aesthetics in interior decoration.
Ranch style home plans are not just an architectural style, but indeed a lifestyle. A single level ranch house plan with front porch is ideal for casual, laid-back family living in close relationship with the out-of-doors. And there are small ranch house plans to fit all budgets and individual needs.
About the Author
I am looking to buy a mid-century modern dining room table.?
We recently purchased a 1950s ranch home. We are in the process of decorating and we are trying to go with an "atomic ranch" style decor. Can anyone point me in the direction of any mid-centry modern websites that might carry a dining set that is from this era? We have a few that we really like and obviously we troll the local shops and craigslistings, but just in case there's something we missed any help would be much appreciated. thanks!
With no offense meant, and hoping that Atomic ranch doesn't suggest the JETSONS decor, Mid Century, MODERN in my opinion was best defined by DANISH MODERN.
Certainly the essence of your choices will depend on what suits YOU, and any other peripheral decor.
I'll also assume RANCH STYLE home, so overused as a term for a single story, LONGISH style house. I'll also assume it isn't Atomic Log design you're interested in.
I'd suggest Brown Shag carpet with Yellow weaving, but that makes me lose my appetite for breakfast, LOL.
Good Hunting.
