CALIFORNIA ARCHITECTURE

The first consideration in designing
home is the environment. The stately
colonial would be out of place on
plain-the low mission style would be
equally so in setting of large trees
and formal lawns. while in the noun
tains perhaps no design is as appropri-
ate as the Swiss. with its straight, ver-
tical lines and fiat roof, while the use
of materials native to the locality adds
to the tout ensemble
With all these ideas in view. the
house shown herewith was designed for
a background of mountains. with
magnificent view of the sea twenty
miles away to the front. The owner
desired only a few rooms, but that
those few should be large and sunny,
and with plenty of porch. The den in
sures privacy, while the stair-hall gives
convenient access to the kitchen, coat
closet, living room, up stairs, basement
and rear entrance, without using other
rooms as a passage way.
1t is a house designed to live in, al
though the spacious front and side
porches, balcony, screen sleeping room,
one of which is always in the shade,
would seem to tempt one to an exist
ence altogether out of doors.
