HOUSE AND GARDEN 
473 
This sort of plan makes possible a service section and stair 
way distinct from the master’s rooms 
ctive by a broad bay and the English casements, with transoms above, 
make Jacobean furniture appropriate 
department is centrally located for efficient service—near 
to the entrance and the dining-room 
Now that bric-a-brac is out of fashion, there is no mantel shelf needed to uphold it. The treatment in 
this living-room, with its simple tapestry brick fireplace and its restrained use of woodwork, creates 
the impression of dignity and durability 
The woodwork in Mr. Hunter’s house shows a keen appreciation of the decorative 
possibilities of grained wood simply finished 
The entire stair space is taken up by the little section at the junction of the two 
wings; the house proper is devoted entirely to room space
