DI 2-3416 By JULES LOH Of the Associated PreM In the vernacular of the times, this is a house for the "emerging family" one whose population and eco-, nomic development, shall we say, hasn't reached its full potential. In a basic space of only 1,300 square feet, architect Samuel Paul has packaged seven rooms, including four bedrooms, and 2Vi baths. Yet nothing is crowded; there is plenty of elbow room, plenty of space for modest entertaining, plenty of romp ing room for youngsters. In other words, it's the type house a young and growing family with a young and grow ing income should study close ly. The reason there is so much ' house in so little basic space is because it is a IK -story model, though from the street it looks like a ranch. In this type house the roof has a sharper pitch so that simply by including a dormer the space that normally would be an -attic becomes a perfectly habitable second story. This means the second story, which contains two large bedrooms and a full bath, doesn't have to be fin ished until somebody comes along to occupy them. It amounts to S48 square feet of extra space at extreme ly low cost, since it doesn't require what could be called structural building costs, with the added benefit that it can be provided bit by bit. Just as the formal area Is enlarged functionally by com bining living and dining rooms, the family room kitchen combination provides a spacious 231-square-foot in formal area. Plenty of win dows assure lots of natural light and fresh air, and make supervision easy whether the kids are on the flagstone play patio or covered front veran dah. Architect Paul has provided a high degree of privacy for the downstairs bedrooms. Not only are they clearly zoned away from the living area with sound buffers be tween, but a sliding door completely closes off the sleeping wing. A large bathroom with a NH ! ' ,.L' i I fl rJ ' l 1 1 F Pa i-. i-hlU: ANT I dual vanity serves both bed rooms, and the nearby lava tory is perfectly placed for emergency family service. Upstairs, the expansion bed rooms are even larger than those below, and the second floor bathroom also has a dual vanity.. All four bedrooms are characterized by an enor mous amount of closet space. Speaking of closets, don't overlook the three under the balcony; two for coats and one for kitchen and utility storage. The house contains a par tial cellar, located under the foyer and bedroom wing, with ample space for recreation, utility and storage space. The 441-square-foot garage also is oversized for extra storage room. Another plus feature of the house is its durable ex terior not only in materials but also in styling. Its rustic colonial flavor, with stone veneer, stucco and a dash of redwood siding, has been charming and tasteful for dec ades and likely will remain so. The house itself is 46'6 wide by 31'10" deep, but the garage protrusion makes its over-all dimensions S5'6 wide by S4'2" deep and architect Paul suggests a plot of 70' by 100' to take full advantage of its looks and outdoor features. Additional Details Floor plans which have the living room in the rear always are interesting, and this one is especially so. Because of an indentation Elegant Furnishings Forecast for Homes CHICAGO (UPD Elegance is the keynote for the home furnishings industry in 1B63. The return to traditional furniture styles and colors is credited to a number of trends, Including Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy's restoration program at the White House. Some home furnishings experts think the trend is sparked also by a wish to return to a less anxious age. Traditional furnishings give a psychological feeling of being removed from the nuclear age, they say. Whatever the reason, the trend is definitely toward ele gance and more ornamentation, said Dorothy Eastline, assist ant to the director of advertising sales and promotion for the Merchandise Mart Miss Eastline predicted "French and Italian Provincial de signs will be very strong, continuing the trend to greater for mality." The continuing interest in Early American designs also will continue, she said. She said the ornate look will influence not only designs of large pieces of furniture, but also lamps, wall accessories, fab rics and even the type of hardware sold for picture frames. A survey of 650 furniture retailers showed that Americans preferred modern and Early American furniture in 1962, Home Furnishings Daily, the trade publication, reported. The traditional English design made a big comeback in '62 and included the classic Chippendale and Regency designs. The National Retail Furniture Association predicted there will be some drop in the demand for Early American in 1963. Italian and French Provincial are expected to continue in strong demand, followed by traditional. VISIT OUrBH&G DOHA CENTER at nr.
