HOMESTEAD ARCHITECTURE.
OUR readers will observe a resemblance between
this and the general plan of Design XXVI., with this
difference, that while the latter is adapted by the pro-
portions of its rooms to an elevation in the Gothic
style, the one before us would appear much better in
the Italian dress.
IRooMS.-E, fig. 175, is a vestibule or porch, through
which an entrance to the main hall D is effected.
A is the parlor, 26 by 16 feet; B, sitting-room, and
C, dining-room, respectively 16 by 18 feet. Beyond
C is the kitchen F, 15 by 16 feet.
The plan of the second floor, fig. 176, shows K the
landing of stairs; L, dressing-room, and three fine
chambers II.
