Five'ROOm House No. 529 
Designed for the Service Department, American Face Brick Association 
This five-room English house is one of the ninety-six designs in our “Face Brick Bungalow and Small House Plans.” Note the splen¬ 
did arrangement of the rooms, their size and exposures, as well as the fine lines and proportions in the exterior design. The garage 
and sleeping porch can be eliminated. Either the front or porch side can face the street, adapting the house to a wide or narrow lot. 
Why Face ‘Frick Is Economical 
T HE fad that Face Brick makes such durable, attradive and 
beautiful homes—whether large or small—leads many pro- 
spedive builders to think that it must be a costly material. A little 
investigation will, however, persuade any open-minded person 
that the very opposite is true. 
The Face Brick house is slightly higher in first cost,but it effeds 
many savings that make it the most economical house you can 
build. Slow depreciation, no repair bills, painting only around 
doors and windows, low insurance rates, and smaller fuel bills, in 
a few years more than wipe out the small difference in cost be¬ 
tween Face Brick and the less durable and less beautiful mate¬ 
rials. Then, too, the comfort, fire-safety, and beauty of the Face 
Brick house have a tangible, economic value, though they can¬ 
not be assessed in dollars and cents. 
“The Story of Brick,” an artistic booklet with numerous illus¬ 
trations, discusses these matters in detail. It has much helpful 
information for all who intend to build. Sent free. 
“Face Brick Bungalow and Small House Plans” are issued in 
four booklets, showing 3 to 4-room houses, 5-room houses, 6-room 
houses and 7 to 8-room houses, in all ninety-six, each reversible 
with a different exterior design. These designs are unusual and 
distinctive, combined with convenient interiors and economical 
construction. The entire set for one dollar. Any one of the book¬ 
lets, 25 cents, preferably in stamps. 
We have the complete working drawings, specifications and 
masonry quantity estimates at nominal prices. Select from the 
booklets the designs you like best and order the plans, even if you 
are not going to build now, for their study will be not only inter¬ 
esting and instructive, but helpful in formulating your future 
plans for a home. 
You may want “The Home of Beauty,” fifty designs, mostly 
two stories, representing a wide variety of architectural styles 
and floor plans. Sent for 50 cents in stamps. We also distribute 
complete working drawings, specifications and quantity estimates 
for these houses at nominal prices. Address, American Face Brick 
Association, 1721 Peoples Life Building, Chicago, Illinois.
