One of the most effective solutions of the 
problem of designing the small house is in 
definitely aiming at the picturesque. Here 
the conventional gambrel roof has been 
given the added incident of a sharp gable 
which emphasizes the quaint entrance be¬ 
neath the pent-roof. The composition of 
the arched batten door with the stone bay 
and diamond-paned leaded casements is a 
happy one. The plans present the utmost 
simplicity and compactness, to effect the 
economy of space necessary in a house of 
this size. The architect is Howard Sill and 
the house was designed for Guilford, a part 
of Roland Park, Baltimore, Maryland
