Ontario Sessional Papers, 1920, . Comments by the Architectural Department. Plax C. This is a house containing six rooms, sleeping porch and bathroom, planned bv-an architect for his own use, and is a very striking example of making a house whichis really quite small in plan appear larpe in elevation by usins the same materialsfor the porch as tor the main building and continuing the structural lines. Thedormer effect obtained in the sleeping porch over is excellent when compared withthe excrescences so often stuck on to small houses. Some improvements to this plan might be considered as follows, viz.: — (I) Front vestibule and coat room. (6) The upstair hall, which is shown runnin? through to the back wall, couldhave been shortened, providing an additional clo?et off the bick room aid a linenroom off the hall. This would have left the shown opening off the hall for theuse of the occupants of the small front bedroom. (r) Cross ventilation for bedrooms. 44 Bl KEAL (IF .ML-NH UAL AFi-Al ; «5. F [I O N T
