HOUSE & GARDEN 
■ 
Kelley & Graves, architects 
In this house the English cot¬ 
tage precedents are apparent: 
the design is developed with 
frame construction through¬ 
out, the construction being 
frankly revealed by the exte¬ 
rior wall-finish of white 
painted shingles. The blinds 
are bottle-green and the roof 
of vari-colored slate. In plan 
the house is direct, the rooms 
being designed for the com¬ 
fortable convenience of a 
small family

here and there by brick 
trim set in wide white 
bond. The living-room 
is commodious and ivell 
lighted. An enclosed 
porch can be opened for 
summer 
Neither on the first 
floor nor the second do 
the stairs encroach on 
any room. This econ¬ 
omy of space allows for 
a generqus room ar¬ 
rangement. The cut of 
the eaves has been 
wisely utilized for 
closet space. It is a 
plan suitable for a fam¬ 
ily of three or four and 
a servant
