1960 DFPA homes Design #16

 


David George, Dallas architect, designed this wide open cabin for the wide-open vistas of Texas, but it's just as adaptable and attractive on a New England seaside lot or in the mountains of the West. Tailored into its small (448 sq. ft.) floor plan, you'll find a complete galley type kitchen; complete bath with a full-size shower; a 32 square foot closet and wardrobe; plus smart-looking built-in sofa beds that will sleep four in real comfort. There's space provided in a snug corner for a prefabricated fireplace that will furnish all the "central heating" you'll ever need. And, there's also a covered sun deck with 128 square feet of area solely for sunning and lounging... mighty pleasant on warm summer evenings. Here again, fir plywood construction helps to keep costs down style high. Exterior fir plywood serves as both inner and outer wall presenting a durable paintable surface to the elements on one side; a warm friendly atmosphere inside. Plywood's large consistent panel size makes it possible to take full advantage of the economies of modular construction . . . also presents possibilities for expansion into a full-time home later.
