House Garden 
Gillies 
The garden side sparkles with a fine 
variety of materials: weather stained marble 
masonry in the lower walls and piers, tile 
arches in the loggia, half-timber and stucco 
in the main gable, and brick-filled half- 
iimber in the living room wing at the right 
The garage gable is weatherboarded in 
wide elm planks which tone to a silver- 
gray and whose edges are not finished 
off but left in their natural irregular 
shape with only the hark removed. A 
bird house sits jauntily at the peak 
The entrance is set within the interior atigle 
of the building and its treatment is more 
severely Tudor than the rest of the house. 
The stone here is a local marble that has 
been exposed to weather in an old founda¬ 
tion for near a century with splendid effect
