House & Garden 
Gillies 
In creating this design the architect depended upon the beauty of the 
materials, rather than ornament, for his effects. The walls are of a 
local sandstone in tones of grays, buffs and blue. Vines will eventually 
mellow these colors. The roof is of slate in a variety of greens, 
mauves and purples. Such woodwork as appears—the clapboard 
gable ends and trim—is painted white. The chimneys have plain 
stone caps. The house stands on the top of the hill and commands a 
view across its broad lawns down the Hackensack Valley on one side 
and on the other to the densely wooded slopes of the Palisades, 
stretching north and south for twenty miles

,4s the owner’s hobby is 
ranching in Montana he 
has decorated his study in 
the style of a ranch log 
cabin. The walls are of 
split logs with wide chinks. 
Rough stone, brick and 
logs make the fireplace. 
The Montana atmosphere 
is further established by 
ranching scenes, Indian 
rugs and heads of game, 
and blue doors
