Most of the .homes illustrated herein have been built in Portland and the Northwestern vicinity, therefore they are not experiments. The many litle things that go to make a Bungalow or Cottage a home have met with the enthusiastic approval of the people. Simplicity without and within is the keynote of the Modern Home.

Study your home and study your belongings to find out just how to make them harmonious and how to bring each room into perfect balance. In the floor plan shown here we have a very convenient, well-planned house. In a small home like this I always suggest the same color for the walls in entrance ball, living room and diningroom. When it is required a tapestry paper for the frieze in the diningroom can carry out the color in either the background or figures, otherwise we carry the same tint throughout. For these rooms I would suggest the now popular color that is this year called faun. It should have been given a nen> name, for it is a new color. It is not the color we have known as faun in the past, however; it is a trifle more yellow than gray, with a suggestion of tan and violet in its composition, and thus it is not the color we have had and that has proved so justly popular, called putty color. It is something new with an old name. It is a most livable color that one does not tire of nor does it “get on the nerves” as does the more intense or striking colors. Neutralize a color by adding a bit of its complementary color and it will soften it and be much more pleasing, both to the eye and nerves. This color makes a fine background for the soft, dull blues and the red that is known as amaranth this year. This red is very beautiful, bordering on the violet, having a little more blue in it than the popular mulberry of last year. The walls can all be tinted the same color, with a warm ivory ceiling. Ceilings must be light if indirect or semi-indirect lighting is used and almost every one now has one or the other, since it is a most satisfactory light, soft and harmonious, restful to the eyes without any of the glare of the old direct system. The little entrance hall or vestibule should have the seat upholstered with blue velour or heavy silk repp—a Holland blue—a color that retains its blue at night by artificial light and is not a cold blue. Put a large square mesh net on the front door on rods top and bottom that keeps it taut, trim and neat looking. Use double vestibule brackets and a three-eights solid brass rod. On the outside rod put an overdrapery of blue etamine or silk repp unlined. The window should have a curtain of the same net and overdraperies of the blue. A Scotch rug of gray, with blue border completes the fabrics in the room, with the exception of the portiere into the living room. If repp is used for overdraperies, if can be used on the hall side of the portieres. If etamine is used as side draperies then use the same velour of which the seat cushion is made. A hall stand with mirror above, in antique gold frame, should be placed in the corner. The hall stand can be made by the carpenter and stained gray like the woodwork. The portiers should have the living room side of the color of the side draperies in that room and should be interlined with canton flannel and canvased at top to make them hang well. In the living room, vestibule and hall I would stain the woodwork gray. This brings out a soft, yellow and violet tone in fir that harmonizes most effectively with the faun colored walls and tiled fireplace. The three windows in the front of the room, as well as the ones above the book-cases should have the same net as in the hall and one can use the same material for overdraperies as used in the hall, but have it amaranth in color. I would have a valance across the full length of the window with two pairs of draperies half width of the fifty-inch materials. For the little windows use only side draperies and no valance. These draperies should all be of the etamine or repp unlined. The portiers on this side must be in velour the shade of the draperies. There should be portiers, both into the hall and diningroom. The rug should be the same design as the hall—gray with amaranth border. Willow furniture— THE CRAFTSMAN BOOK OF BUNGALOWS 21 a big library table, a couple of fireside chairs and a couch, all upholstered in a good heavy cretonne with flowers of the same amaranth color and green leaves that make a fine harmony and a comfortable room. This having the furniture all of willow adds a spaciousness to a small room that one does not get in mixing up different kinds of furniture. The piano would be especially good finished in gray to match the hardwood and you can get bungalow pianos now in the natural wood to be finished as desired. A big growing plant, either a fern or palm, adds much to this room. Just a few good prints in color, in dull antique gold frames, will be very effective. The woodwork in the diningroom and bedrooms should be enamel in ivory white, not blue-white, but ivory-white, and in a flat enamel. Use the same net for curtains. It is so much better in small homes to use the same curtain material all round. Of course in larger homes this is not at all necessary, but it does make a better effect from the outside in a small house. Use a pretty blue flowered cretonne for over-draperies in the diningroom. Here again use the variance all the way across, but with only one pair of side draperies. This leaves all the light there is, yet gives the needed touch of color. One can use a paper border to match the cretonne and a screen filled with the cretonne in front of the kitchen door. With plain walls portiers of the cretonne is good, both with the living room and the back hall. The furniture here could be of cottage style and enameled ivory white. If you have an old diningroom set that you are tired of and would like to change, have it enameled and it will be a joy in this room. Have the Scotch rug blue with gray border, still keeping the same design. The rugs are reversible, blue on one side and gray on the other. A box in the window enameled ivory and tilled with flowering geraniums would add the finishing touch. Let the little back hall and the two bedrooms be tinted a light h rench gray all alike with ivory woodwork in the rooms. The bedroom opening out of the hall could have light blue over draperies sat both windows of a guaranteed fabric that does not fade and that washes and irons perfectly. A light wood or enamel set looks well in this room and a shirt-waist box, bureau cover under glass, cushions for the rockers and bedspread can be made of a dainty blue and white English chintz. Two rag rugs made to order of gray with blue and black borders complete the room unless you wish to add a paper border to match the chintz, in color. The bathroom should be all in white, walls, ceilings and accessories. Just a simple white curtain and a washable rug. This does not conflict then with any room. The second bedroom should be treated like the first, excepting the color and here if it has one north window yellow can be used, for it is lovely with gray. The rugs should be gray with yellow and black borders. A border on the walls of yellow roses is very effective. Use the plain yellow side draperies with valance since this will not fade and then the cretonne for the other accessories. Unless an expensive cretonne is used it will fade, consequently I always advise the plain Scotch material that is positively guaranteed for the windows and the cretonnes for the bedspread and other draperies when they do not get the direct sun nor light. For the kitchen there is a washable flat paint and then a good linoleum in a tile pattern, say in blue and white, since it opens direct into the diningroom, with its blue rug. A small rocker with a slip-over cover of blue chintz will prove a happy thought for the kitchen. Then an enameled stool that will slip under the sink and the kitchen is complete. 22 THE CRAFTSMAN BOOK OF BUNGALOWS PLAN NO. 439 THE CRAFTSMAN BOOK OF BUNGALOWS 23 PLAN NO. 439 Concrete foundation and base¬ ment cement, steps, walks and cel¬ lar floor.

The first picture.is typical of the better class of Bungalow, very popular and increasing in favor; predominating horizontal lines emphasizing the Bungalow feeling of hospitality and restful home. This class of dwellings usually have four or five rooms on the first or living floor, and one or more rooms on the second or attic floor; fireplaces, seats, cozy inglenooks, dens, built-in closets, wardrobes, buffets, etc., are special features, along with beamed ceiling and wood panelled walls, exterior wide projecting roof, flower boxes and timber effect showing. In the second picture the vertical lines predominate with great success, giving it an impressive, dignified appearance, in which the relative proportions are well carried out and the atmosphere of rest and home influence well sustained. This class of residence has from seven to ten rooms, is full two-stories high, with sometimes a finished attic; in other respects the detail and construction are carried out very much as the first. Elevations, floor plans, detail, lumber, material and labor estimate and modifications of same on file in our office and can be supplied at any time.
