COTTADE HOMES- L I B R_AR.Y OF THE UNIVERSITY or ILLINOIS g r^Q .6 ?\T a ja 70, '.ir'lv'ERSITY OF, ILL'I PALLISER'S AMERICAN COTTAGE HOMES. ?n^ ..c.v^^^&ov^^^^^ 7^ H^^^^U»^^ PEEFACE. vr iTN presenting to the public a new work on Architecture, we have endeavored to meet a demand that -- ""^1^ has been made on us, for some time past, for practical designs of low and medium priced houses suited to the masses of our country. We have endeavored, by careful study of proportion and distribution of parts, to combine good de- \^ sign with practical, convenient plans and sound construction ; in fact onr aiin has been, to get the best effect in design in the simplest, most common sense, and least expensive manner, as it is not expense and ornate decorations, which so many ignorantly believe to be the highest attainment of architecture, but design, which produces true beauty and graceful appearance. The same materials and expense thrown away on an ugly, ill-proportioned building, if guided by good design, would produce an elegant building, and this is why the architect is brought into requisition, to treat the materials placed in his hands so as to give an expression of beauty to the simplest form. It is an erroneous idea, that it is necessai'y to enclose convenience and comfort in the internal ar- rangements with ugliness, or that it is impossible to obtain a pleasing and effective design with a good plan and a modern construction. We have seen buildings which, externally, were perfect, but their plans of interior arrangement were absolute failures, being without a closet or pantry and devoid of the comfort and conveniences which one would expect to find. The first and main object of consideration should be the plan, the design being of a pliant nature and easily adapted to the ever-varying forms of comfortable and convenient plans. One of the objects of this work is to show, that in the erection of buildings the last named principles may be combined; also, we hope that it may prove suggestive to those intending to build and to mechanics engaged in the erection of buildings. We are inclined to think that, in many instances, the ideas contained will be something more than suggestive, and they will no doubt be found useful in assisting those who propose the erection of buildings, to decide on the character of the building they wish to erect. It has not been stated on the Plates where and for whom the buildings have been erected, yet the greater portion of the designs have been executed, or are in progress of execution in different parts of the country. In this we hope to have shown what can be done in obtaining good and convenient plans, with tasty and effective exterjors, at very low prices ; the present state of the country has made this a necessity, and has been one of the chief considerations in preparing these designs. The prices given will only do for the same specification the designs were executed by, and the same locality, and will vary according to location and style of material and finish used in construction.

PLATE 1 Represents the title-page of this work, which it has been deemed best to make a useful plate, by showing the perspective views of Designs i, 2, 3, and 23, these designs being without views on the plates where they are illustrated. The large perspective view is of a neat cottage, now in course of erection at Seaside Park, one of the most charming places in New England. The first story is built of fine Trenton pressed brick, trimmed with buff and chocolate-colored brick and Longmeadow brown stone, the second story being of timber construction ; roofs covered with black slate, ridges of terra cotta ; upper part of all windows filled with stained glass ; windows fitted with Wilson & James's rolling Venetian blinds. The first floor is de- signed to be finished in ash, with paneled ceilings and hard-wood floor ; second floor in pine, finished in natural color. All rooms have open fire-places, built of buff brick and furnished with hard-wood mantels. First floor contains main hall, ten feet wide, with large open fire-place in same, and is connected with parlor by sliding doors, so that on special occasions they can be thrown into one. The dining-room and library are connected in like manner. A toilet- room is placed in rear of main hall, which is con- venient to the stairs and back hall. The kitchen is in rear wing, and communicates with dining-room through waiter's pantry. Store pantry and ice-closet are on the north side, the ice being put into ice-tank from outside, through a door provided for that purpose. Back hall contains back stairs, also communi- cates with cellar, kitchen, and main hall. Second floor — Five chambers, three dressing rooms, bath-room, cedar and linen closets. A fine room on third floor is provided for servant and there is also a large attic for storage. The room in Tower is 10 x 12 feet in size, with large open fire-place ; is designed for use, and commands an excellent view of Long Island Sound and the surrounding country. Laundry and drying-room are placed in basement under kitchen. This cottage is intended for a first-class residence, is furnished with all modern improvements and conveniences, and heated by indirect heat. PUBLISHED BY PALLISER.

If any wish to employ us, we sliall be pleased to hear fiom them, and will undertake to serve them in the best, most careful, and faith- ful manner, but it is usually expected that inquiries will be accompanied with stamp for reply. During past years, we have answered, at considerable cost in time, postage, etc., several thousand letters of inquiry, from people everywhere, who omitted to enclose stamp ; and, in a great many instances, these inquiries were of little account. We have "no desire to be troubled for nothing, though as a matter of courte- sy, we answer all letters promptly, and shall continue to do so. It matters not whether our clients reside in the States of Connecticut, Massaclnisetts, or New Yoik, near to us, or .3,000 miles away — distance is no obstacle, we can serve them equally as well, as hundreds in every State and Territory in the Union, Canada, Nova Scotia, and the Brazils, can testify; and wherever our designs .are carried out, clients are pleased, press and public e.xtol on the art and conveniences, which are being the wonder and admiration of everyone ; and builders everywhere are unanimous in their statements that the drawings, speciflcations, and all tlie instruments of service are rendered in the most thorough, complete and practical manner for them to work from, and to enable them to put the work together without error, of any they ever had to do with ; and everyone may certainly rest assured that we shall not, at this stage of our practice, do a service in any manner that will not give the fullest satisfaction. Our study is faithful service for our clients" best interests. Any one about to build, and desiring our services, will please send two three-cent stamps, and we will send full particulars as to our terms and method of furnishing General Drawings, Details and Specifications for buildings, plain and cheap or elegant and costly, to be erect- ed anvwhere.

The only composition jet discovered for perfectly Filling and Finishing Wood and developing and preserving all the natural beauties of Grain, Figure and Color. It is applicable to all kinds of wood. Though a recent discovery, it has revolutionized the old systems of finisliing woods, and all who use it gladly testify to its grea* saving in cost, and superiority of finish. It fills the pores of wood so perfectly smooth and solid, that a fine Finish is obtained with only one coat of varnish. It being non absorbent, damp atmosphere or water will not affect it. The solid part of this Filler being composed of sharp, angular particles, it readily adheres to and unites with the pores and fibres of the wood, so that nothing can disturb it when dry. It is perfectlj- transparent, eonsequentl3' will not impair, but when properly rubbed, greatly increases the natural brilliancy of tha wood. To Owners, Architects, Builders, Painters and Furnitup Manufacturers and to all who are engaged in finishing, or have any occasion to finish any kind of wood work, from a Piano to a Butler's Pantry, we confidently recommend this "Patent Filler" as the best and cheapest means of producing a good and desirable finish. When once thoroughly tested it will never be dispensed with. DI R.ECTIOTV S FOR USE. First fill the pores of the wood with "WHEELER'S PATENT WOOD FILLER" and let it stand a sufficient length of time to dry; after which apply one coat of the OIL FINISH and when dry, rub down with Oil and Pumice stone. When an e.xtra finish is re- quired, add a second coat of the OIL FINISH (without rubbing first coat), and when dry rub down with Oil and Pumice stone. For Pol- ished Work, proceed the same as when using Rubbing or Polishing Varnish. ALSO MANUFACTURERS OF AND DEPOT FOR D. e.
