The Detroit times., 1911-03-31
BY Rene Mansfield

At last we are beginning to feel
that we have come into our own, arch
itecturally. In BODYBUILDING We have
borne with the accusation that the
architecture of our houses is borrowed
from every quarter OF the globe. oft
en- presenting a hopeless conglomera-
ton OF borrowings under the self
same roof-tree we have had to, be-
! cause there they were scattered all
over the country-Queene Anne cot
tages, Smiss chalets, Italian Villas, In
dian bungalows and art nouveau mon
strosities, some OF them at peace with
their environment, more Of them un-
fortunate aliens. But from this indis-
criminate adoption there have evolv-
ed certain styles in American archi-
lecture, bearing still suggestions OF
their source, but SO modified and
adapted to our needs and ideals that
they are now recognized as striking
the note OF individuality so long de.
MED TO us.
There is a directness OF design and
a sincerity of treatment in these TWEEN
tieth century homes that is most salts
flying. II has been said that There
is q subtle relation existing between
nome architecture anu thS human
heart, and the expression of that re-
lation should be the ideal OF domestic
architecture Al least We may be
said 10 be approaching that ideal, be-
cause primarily we are insisting that
our homes express simple beauty and
hospitable comfort and livableness.
The increasing use OF plaster has
been a great incentive to composition,
since IL frees the architect TO a GER
tain extent from strict adherence to
rules. Although this application OF
cement to the exteriors OF buildings
Is really many hundreds OF years old
Il has been used only for brick or
! stone buildings, so that its use on
those of frame construction Is practi-
cally new and experimental. But
since II promises great durability, II
protected by a good waterproof, wash,
and Is proof against cold and damp,
besides lending itself TO many attrac-
tive finishes, it's popularity Is not like
ly to wane.
The picturesque qualities OF the
combination OF cement with brick or

room; the sideboard and the cupboard
In the dining room. the kitchen cabinet
and refrigerator and medicine chest
and linen shelves--all adding to the
beauty and convenience OF the house.
In nothing so much as In the new
freplaces does the creditable ten, -
cy to express ourselves In the n -
rails themselves rather than in ornA-
mentation show itself. They are we'll

when used Among the Grueby, Rock
wood and Moravian tiles II Is possible
to obtain effects that will harmonic

timber seem especially adapted to the
requirements of our western and
northwestern countries where, indeed.
one will find the greatest number OF
these stucco exteriors. Quite new Is
the use OF tiles as decorative feature.
The faience tiles, some made from the
formula of the ancient Babylonian tile,
are used to great advantage In the
holdings, architraves of doors and
windows, friezes, and 80 on. They
form pleasant contrast to the &C.
ment, and are sometimes also used
for the roofing.
The interior arrangement OF the
medium sized home usually follows
one OF three simple plans; the living
room may extend across the entire
front of the house with den and din
ing room opening from II and the
kitchen back OF the den there may be
good size entrance hall with rec
tangular living room on one side and
the dining room and kitchen on the
other: or there may be the square
entrance hall with the kitchen behind
1t and the dining room behind the liv-
ing room. Any of these arrangements
are cosy and convenient, but the pref
efenCe may De SAID 10 rest WIN tHe
first, which allows for the long. spac
ious living room. The living room of
western home of this type was made
most livable by the use OF many little
built-in hooks and corners, and was
divided by Orders instead OF the
usual columns or posts. The fire
place of olive-green tile had built.in
bookcases on either side, with two
windows above 1t, and the dull red
walls harmonized with the woodwork
of dressed redwood left in its natural
color Sliding glass doors between
the living room and the den were .
unique feature that further gave the
impression of spaciousness.
II is surely the day of the built-in
furniture. 1t owes its vogue not only
to the artistic demands which II meets
SO gratifyingly, but to the practical de-
mands for compact utility. There Is
the hall-tree in the hall and perhaps
the built-in seat with It's hinged top;
the bookshelves in the living room, the
fireplace, the ingle nook. and the win
dow seat all component parts of the

furnished by q bride. The walls we're
papered with a soft hued paper with
tan ground covered with a blur OF
old rose flowers and dull green leaves,
with just touch Of brown which was
accented by the brown wood trim Of
the room and the fiat moulding inclos-
ing each wall space. The portieres
were of dull green arras cloth with a
motif suggested with the wall paper
and carried out in the same low tones
In applique. An interesting idea was
the Installing of small electric lamps
on each post Of the builtin book
shelves.
In place of wainscoting for the din
ming room, which Is, OF course, most
desirable but also most expensive,
strip divisions Of grained woods
stained dark rich colors, are much
used. In an upstairs living room a
charming effect was obtained by the
The Detroit times., 1911-03-31

One Of the most hopeful signs OF
the times, artistically, Is that much OF
! the so-called bric-a-brac with which,
not SO long ago, we were wont To
! clutter UP our homes, has fallen into
merited disrepute. We no longer feel
\ that the mantle shelf Is the abiding
place for a motley array OF ornaments;
rather we select single article OF
artistic worth that Is In keeping with
the general character OF the room.
Even In the most inexpensive wares
we insist upon a simplicity Of line and
integrity of material
Pottery and brass and copper lend
themselves particularly well TO the
decorative schemes that the prevail
ing interiors seem to call for. There
is the Newcomb pottery. with it's deep
ly incised design and its soft blending
OF green and blue and gray; there IL
! the hammered brass and the spun
brass In unlimited forms-baskets,
vases, jardiniers. smoking sets; and
there Is the copper, toned TO various
finishes and used In az many ways as
brass.
Every season brings out new and at
tractive designs In candlesticks. Be-
sides those in copper and brass more
elaborate ones In Italian carved wood
are being shown. These are tinted or
gilded, and are carved In a manner
suggesting the Renaissance. Charming
for table use are those OF Austrian
ware that have a raised empire design
OF festooned wreaths,in dull gold and
pink, against the cream white or the
china. Pressed glass and etched
glass are also much used. The Colon
ial candlestick with the etched wind
shield, which may be bought for three
dollars, Is very popular, and is a most
effective as well as sometimes useful
ornament for the guest room.
A novel decoration and flower re-
ceptable for the table, Of Wedgewood
ware, In In the form OF curved and
straight sections of tiny fence. The
posts are hollow to hold small flowers,
and when the whole structure Is set
up In a circle or oval IN the center OF
the table the effect Is OF a miniature
garden.

The fresh air crusaders may point
to many Of the new homes with tri-
umph, because not few OF them have
not only sun room but often one or
two outdoor sleeping balconies on the
second floor. A home just erected by
an enthusiast of the fresh air persua-
sion has two, of generous dimensions,
