NG STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. House Planned to Meet Limited Budget DESIGN OFFERED BY A. 1. A. COMBINES UTILITY WITH MINIMUM COST. FIRST FLOOR the home idea offered today by | the Washington Chapter, Amer- | ican Institute of Architects, pro- | vides a minimum of necessary accommodations at a minimum cost, | without sacrificing comfort and con- venience. The home plan presented for publi- cation in The Sar as the seventeenth PLANNED to suit a limited budget, Meigs, architect, and was approved for publication by a special committee of the local chapter. In designing the house. the architect tock into consideration the desirability of future additions and made adequate provision for them. An extra bed room and bath in a one-story wing may be added on the right side of the house, without seriously affecting kitchen light and ventilation, the architect points out. A dining room may be added in an-| other wing on the rear, replacing part; of the kitchen porch and having an | entrance from the living room. The! lot for this house should have a mini- | mum width of 45 feet and, if a bed | room wing is contemplated, should be | 60 feet. A level lot is most desirable. ‘The design follows the best examples | of small Colonial homes in parts of Virginia and Maryland. The interior is planned to accommodate modern | living nkq‘ulrmenm s ‘ ‘The kitchen, for example, contains | all the Ilatest conveniences for the | housewife, is compactly planned, and yet roomy enough to have a small dining table at one end. An exceptionally large living room | with three exposures is provided for in | the plan. Its interior finish would in- clude two large wooden beams across the ceiling. Wallpaper of bright, figured | SECOND FLOOR design and moldings and trim of.sim- ple, dignified character, are proposed. In the basement plan the heating and laundry equipment has been kept under the kitchen end of the house so that the space below the living room. The main bed room is larger than average and includes ample closet space. A large dressi space enough for a fol bed, sepa- rates the smaller bed room from the bath room. so that this chamber might | @ be converted to use as a study or sit- ting room in the daytime, Care was taken in the design of the roof to allow all upstairs rooms to have | @ walls which are vertical for their full height, with no slopes on account of | § intruding roof construction. The house as planned, without addi tions, would cost between $4,000 and $6,500 to build, the architect estimates.
