the couch which is lightened by blue and 
gold pillows. Overdrapes are blue velvet.

(Below) That simplicity and harmony 
are the fundamentals of decoration finds 
ample evidence in one of the bedrooms in 
the Laurence Armour residence at Lake 
Forest, III. There is no unnecessary fur¬ 
niture and that which is used is simple. 
Harmony is found in the fabric combina¬ 
tions: couch and chair are upholstered in 
one fabric and curtains and bed cover in 
another. The decorator was Miss Gheen 
Fuermann & Son 
Northend 
(Below) A more extensive view of the Lewisohn living 
room shows the fireplace arrangement. Woodwork, a

and mantel decorations are old Chinese porcelains. Crys¬ 
tal electric fixtures. Harry Allen Jacobs, architect.
