House & Garden 
English cottage architecture, 
which exercises such a pro¬ 
nounced influence today in the 
designing of the small and 
medium size American house, 
has beeti used in this residence. 
The whole design is simple. 
By the use of a variety of 
building materials a richness 
of color and character was at¬ 
tained. This rear view shows 
the garage wing, back of the 
kitchen and at the left of the 
picture 
Among the interesting de¬ 
tails are the triple-flue chim¬ 
neys topped with chimney 
pots, the roof of shingles 
stained in varied tones of 
brown and red, the wide 
overhang of the eaves and 
the way the casement win¬ 
dows break the eave line. 
This view below shows the 
kitchen entrance, which is 
effected through a gated ves¬ 
tibule, and the range of din¬ 
ing room windows
