In 1901 Gustav Stickley founded the periodical known as The Craftsman, which began by expounding the philosophy of the Arts & Crafts movement. The Craftsman is credited with being voice of Arts & Crafts movement in the United States. In collaboration with architect Harvey Ellis, he designed house plans for the magazine that later appeared in two books: Craftsman Homes (1909) and More Craftsman Homes (1912).
