Storrs, Lewis Austin, 1903-

The key to your new home; a primer of liveable and practical houses, edited by Lewis Storrs, Jr.

New York, Stackpole Sons [©1938]

128 pages illustrations (including plans) 33 cm

From early American styles of architecture to unashamed modernism the pictures and plans in this beautiful book range-but everywhere practical livability is the first consideration. Here is an idea-quarry for prospective home-builders and for home-owners who want to try remodeling. Here are architects' plans (many of them including landscaping) out of the ordinary, and yet avoiding the bizarre. Not only houses are considered, but attractive details of every sort-doors, windows, dressing rooms, driveways and swimming pools. Mr. Storrs shows the well-to-do how to get the most out of their good fortune, and with equal care tells the proper way to allot a limited budget. -- from dust jacket.
