If we had 'fifteen pages in this Portfolio we 
could by no means exhaust all the possibili¬ 
ties of Interior Decoration. The story of 
Interior Decoration cannot be told in fifteen 
pages. In these glimpses we can give only a 
few suggestions. Study the rooms. If you 
plan to decorate, clip out the pages and 
make your own Little Portfolio. If your 
problems are still unsolved, write The In¬ 
formation Service, House & Garden, 445 
Fourth Avenue, Nezv York City. 
A LITTLE PORTFOLIO 
OF GOOD INTERIORS

Again lattice relieves the 
barrenness of the walls 
above. The floor is red 
tile and the fireplace red 
brick laid in wide bond. 
Wicker furniture finds a 
fitting place 
Besides diffusing light or cutting off the excess of it, 
curtains “pull" a room together. The living-room 
below, in its negligie of curtainless summer dress, is 
open and barren. Visualize it curtained, and it be¬ 
comes intimate and richly furnished

To the left, an enclosed 
porch in the residence of 
G. G. Rumsay (see page

cessfully used, and a piece 
of erstwhile built-in furni¬ 
ture is well placed
