This style originated in California in the 1930s. It emerged as one of the most popular American styles in the 1950s and 60s.

The style takes its cues from Spanish Colonial and Prairie and Craftsman homes, and is characterized by its one-story, pitched-roof construction, built-in garage, wood or brick exterior walls, sliding and picture windows, and sliding doors leading to patios.
