PASADENA . (AP) — My love of 100-year-old California Craftsman bungalows — those low-slung, early 20th century Arts and Crafts-era homes known for their clean, horizontal lines and sturdy woodwork — runs long and deep.I grew up in one in Hollywood, outfitted with dark, wooden, built-in cabinets and exposed beams, and my family lives in one in South Pasadena, northeast of downtown Los Angeles, with a swooping Japanese-style roof. My fiancé, Dave, and I rent a small, century-old Craftsman house here in Pasadena’s landmark district Bungalow Heaven, home to more than 1,000 historic bungalows, most of them Craftsmans.Why do I appreciate them? One word: uniqueness.
