House & Garden 
THE MUSIC ROOM 
of ALMA GLUCK 
IN NEW YORK CITY 
GROSVENOR ATTERBURY, Architect 
Gillies 
We should have said it was the 
music room of M. and Mme. 
Efram Zimbalist, for it houses 
the rare combination of Alma 
Gluck, the singer, and Efram 
Zimbalist, the violinist. A large 
room, finished in simple Italian 
style 
At one end of the room are 
leaded windows which give 
abundant light for the two 
pianos. These windows corre¬ 
spond with a pair at the oppo¬ 
site end, as shown in the view 
above. The curtains are heavy, 
dark blue velour 
A large stone fireplace is on one 
side of the studio. Comfortable 
couches upholstered in blue 
velour flank it. The floor is 
dark and waxed, furnishing a 
good ground for the richly col¬ 
ored oriental rugs
