porch-ology
Why are porches so alluring? We will be talking about some architectural concepts and ideas around this most fabulous element of your home's identity and embrace.

I'm not certain that "porch-ology" is an actual word, but to me it represents the cultural and social aspects of the American porch.
I wrote a blog post exploring some of the many reasons we fell in love with our front porches in the first place, and what's driving the resurgence of porches now. |

Here's a narrow front porch tucked in under the eaves on Pleasant Street in downtown Prescott. It looks as though it's original to the house, and is well lived in. We really like the repeating posts and the simple color scheme.
View from the sidewalk - so inviting!
Dutch doors are a fun detail and the pair of lanterns on either side finish it off.
Smaller furniture suits this small space and makes it a functional space. And that wonderful swinging bench is so sweet!
