Description
Excerpt from White Pine, Vol. 3: Series of Architectural Monograph, a White Pine House
Fourth prize, Design No. 86: The design placed fourth, in rendering is disappointing, but a careful study of the elevations and of_the details convinced the Jury that the house would build better than is indicated by the perspective. The sleeping porch, always a difficult problem, is well managed. The arrangement of the servants'' quarters on both the first and second ?oors is admirable, although the disposition of space on the first ?oor is not so happy as in many other cases, and the Jury felt that it was unnecessary to reduce the size of the den to permit a service passage from the pantry to the front entrance. The layout of the property is satisfactory and in general the scheme shows a careful consideration of all points and a just balance of the several factors.
