Easy living in 1950s style

Kastelli’s series of traditional homes continues with these nostalgic 1950s-style homes. The Nostalgia models are inspired by the best aspects of single-family home architecture of that golden decade.

The 1950s were a period when reconstruction continued robustly and people moved from rural areas into towns. The state-funded Arava loan system made it possible for many to enter a new age in their own home. Home appliances and more spacious rooms made life easier, especially for the mothers of families.

The architecture of these single-family homes is clear-cut and simple, without unnecessary decorations. The rooms are spacious with practical furnishings. The exterior facing of wooden houses changed from vertical to horizontal boarding, and small-paned windows made way for larger windows.

The classically beautiful exteriors and functional interiors of the Nostalgia homes originate from these purposeful, simple designs.

Take a look and you’ll be charmed!
