TO BE READY SEPTEMBER "a
Workmen Are Putting Finishing Touches
to Attractive Residence-Landscap-
ing Effects Developing.

as the front The situation Of the
home site is such that the house will
have the advantage of changing
perspectives as it is approached along
the curving lines of Orchid street.,
In addition the house has been set
back an unusual distance from the
street, securing Il spacious. unbroken
lawn on the street front. and to
further this effect an entrance walk
and the garage driveway are widely
separated.
Vista to Garden.
The position of the entrance per-
mits an open vista straight through
the stair hall and corridor to the gar
den and the view beyond, opening on
paved terrace partially covered by
open pergola rafters. The entrance
on the south is protected by a shelter
ing porch. The house itself is a COM
bination of features of the English
and French rural cottage style archi-
lecture and was designed especially
to harmonic with the suburban ma
ture of its surroundings.
Exteriorly 1t is designed to convey
the low, rambling appearance of the
old English and Norman French
architecture, stone masonry being
largely employed in the construction,
with some brick and stucco introduced
to accentuate the stonework.

the grounds at each side.
One finds Virginia cedars, native

mixed with other evergreens and ris-
ing above them to give height to the
planting mass. With the cedars are
rhododendron, an occasional Norway
spruce or Douglas spruce, hemlock
and the beautiful abelia or arbutus
shrub, which flowers all Summer and
has shiny green foliage all Winter.
Arborvitae are found near the
house walls and facing the piers,
with smaller growing Japanese yew
and a few more abelia and rhode
dendron. Two we'll matched boxwoods
of small size are on either side of
the entrance steps. Nearby are the
spreading PfitZer's juniper and feath-
cry Japanese evergreens, the retina-

these evergreens are crimson zinnias.

STAR HOME AT LYON VILLAGE
HAS FINE Handspring PLAN

The landscaping of The Star model
home in Lyon Village, Va, which
tomorrow enters its third week of
public exhibition, has attracted favor
able comments from many of the
hundreds of visitors who have in
spected the place since it was COM
pleted August %.
Proper landscaping is vital to all
homes, and this is especially true of
houses of the Mediterranean type of
architecture, which is the style of
the Virginia demonstration house, in
order to bring out the beauty of the
lines of the home.
Located in Wooded Area.
The model home On Granada Terrace
is located in a wooded area, some %
feet above the Lee Highway, which
Is reached by private drive serving
all of the homes on the terrace. For
this reason the grounds of the model
home required an informal or natural
style of treatment.
The planting around the demon
stratlon home was arranged so that
1t TANKS both sides of the house as
it faces the drive. This gives an
effect of massed green around the
ornamental gates and wall ends,
which extend beyond the sides of the

With the opening date of The Star
model home in Rock Creek Park
Estates just two weeks in the flu
ture. a corps of workmen today are
busily engaged placing finishing
touches on the interior of the house,
while others continued with the de-
velopment of the landscaping effects
of the grounds of the home. The
house is to be completed, replete with
modern conveniences and furnished
throughout by September "a. and on
the following day it will be thrown
open TO the public for month of
inspection and study.
This model home, the third Of the
series of four sponsored this year by
The Star and the Home Owners In
stitute, is located on Orchid street
about a square north of Kalmia road.
Special handspring.
Special attention has been paid to
the landscaping of this house, and
since the starting of the building
project Miss Rose Greedy has col
laborated with the firm of Edison w.
Briggs, builders of the house, in the
planning and development Of the
grounds.
The landscaping layout contem.
plates an arbor with curved seat and
arched pergola roof, on the axis of
the house corridor, at the end of the
lot. the seat backed by low hedge
and f1anked with paintings so dis
posed as not to impair the view to
the southeast. as the ground behind
the lot drops down rapidly in a deep
terrace, affording a commanding po-
sition for this feature.
A rejecting pool with water lilies
will occupy an immediate position be.
tween the arbor and the house, serv'
ing to reflect an image of each from
the other.
The site on which the home is To-
Gated is on a high and commanding
position and special attention was
given in design to secure pleasing
effect from the rear and sides G well

PLANS SHOW INCREASE.
Architects Records Indicate Gain
of SO, 600, ooo, 900 in 7 Years.

Recent large increases in annual
construction volume in the United
States have been paralleled by like in
creases in the volume of work planned
by architects, according to the Archi-
tectural Record. Total construction
volume increased from approximately
three and one-quarter billion dollars in
1920 to very nearly seven billions in
1926; in the same period the volume of
work planned by architects increased
from something less than two billion
dollars to practically four billions, the
Record states.
These facts were determined from
a continuous 7-year job-by-job analysis
of over 100000 operations amounting
to II billion dollars. made by the sta
tisticai division of F. w. Dodge Cor
poration. The analysis shows that the
architects volume has maintained a
constant percentage of total construc-
ton, about So. When building alone
is considered, emitting engineering
work, the architects percentage of
the total is 10

Roof Important Home Factor.

If you are planning to build or re.

the roof to the home itself. Aside from
the important fact that the roof is
designed to protect all the interiof
contents, from an architectural view,
point it represents approximately two.
thirds of the exposed (exterior) area Of
the building itself. Can there be any
more logical reason why the selection
of the roof-its color. as well as quail
