Wilson 1862-1953 called himself “The Bungalow Man†and published many different catalogues of bungalow designs from 1910 through the 1920s. He heavily marketed his “Wilson Bungalow†and was a significant architect in the development of the California bungalow through the influence of the Japanese aesthetic on the American Arts & Crafts Movement along with the development of the “dobe shacks†of early Californios into comfortable homelike bungalows. He also specifies in this catalogue that he would execute special plans for clients at $ 10.00 per home with a range of sizes. Of interest are the numerous illustrations of interiors Arts & Crafts inspired hardware doors and more included with the house plans.
