House & Garden 
THINGS YOU REMEMBER A HOUSE BY 
It may be the curtains or the color of the rugs or the 
comfortable grouping around a hearth or the array of 
books along a library wall that you remember a house 
by. But, if you will look back on those houses that 
have meant much to you, you will recall them for the 
play of light and shade—patterned sunshine filtered 
through the curtain’s colors across a floor, a shaft of 
moon gloio against a bedroom wall, a flood of morning 
light from a half-opened door into a hallway. An ex¬ 
ample is this view of the C. E. Chambers residence at 
Riverdale, N. Y., of which Julius Gregory was archi¬ 
tect. Windows should be curtained and doorways de¬ 
signed with this hi view. Good architecture and 
decoration always take the sunshine into account
