HOUSE AND GARDEN 
299 
The main staircase faces the entrance doorway and is seen through a 
flat arch—a very agreeable treatment 
The arch gives the fore part of the entrance hall the semblance of a 
reception room and is furnished for that purpose 
The living-room is particularly airy and is approached from the main 
hall and the west hall as marked on the plan 
The bay in the dining-room looks out upon the garden and runs along 
more than one-half the southern side, providing light and cheerfulness 
The south porch may be entirely inclosed with screens or glass, and 
since the doorway is at one end, takes on the qualities of a room 
At the southern exposure a garden is laid out in formal lines, but it is 
very simple. Its axis runs through the center of the house
