Leo
YoU hive to examine this home carefully to realize that it is planned as a rectangle—univer
sally'conceded to be the most economical kind of home to build. And within, the architect has
achieved*the extraordinary result of putting every square foot of space to its fullest use. The
living room with its fireplace provides warmth and charm. By placing the fireplace on the front
outside wall, you get an impression of a brick front. The eighteen-foot kitcheh will delight the
most discriminating homemaker. For formal meals there is a dining room which, by the way,
provides direct access to the breeze*
way. Each of the two bedrooms has
windows facing in two directions, in*
suring plenty of light and air< Then,
too, the full .basement provided for in
this design will take care of any future
“expansion area” ideas Jrou may have.
