Furnishings: | oun Oshawa Citizens Can Inspect dea Home Of The Year The The Ideal Home of the Year, bas been built by the Me- Construction Company, , on Glencairne Street, in Brookside Acres sub-divi- jon in Oshawa, plays heavily on feeling Canadians have toors. Every oud is logically rela to a ge A house for the convenience and the most 'alse the small end of the liv- voom, shown below.

Look to the family room that reminds you pleasantly ifs space is only limited by how far you can see outside. Through- 'out, eolor is used to pull areas to- gether, The turquoise and - gray and yellow of the living room re- appear in exciting new ways in the family room. While these warmer colors are repeated, bright colors that were held down in the more formal living room are given free rein in the family room The wall at the far end of the family room (right) is gypsum | wallboard painted yellow. Hard-| wood shelves on adjustable brack- | ets and a slab bench are painted | black. Cotton draperies have a| soft-yellow background with a] sharp - yellow and black abstract | rn. Turquoise is picked up in the plastic chair covers. The | sofa bed adds still another color | dimension: red. And the hard-| surface flooring (so right in this | Yoom) marbleizes gray, yellow, iii 13: HERE, kers, Des Moines. COLORS, textures, and patterns of the decorations serve to flavor | forts of the home. It's impossible to separate talk of one from an- other. In itself, this signals the in- terior success story of the Idea Home of the Year. In 'the living room where walls are not exterior siding, they are textured (but not patterned) grass cloth. Draperies are the only pat- terned fabric. There is plenty of pattern in the exposed structure of the and board-and-batten walls, Earthy tones of the copper- clay wool carpet, grey-and-yellow grass cloth, gray-stained ceiling and walls blend easily with archi- tecture that allows so much light into the house and through the house, Only a few bright accent colors are used or necessary. "THE FAMILY ROOM." some- one said, "is every room in one room." And it must be just that, if it's going to be a room for all the family. The family eats here, they watch television: here, Dad reads here, the children play here, | and family guests can sleep here. But most important -- these things must be convenient and ap- propriate to do in the one room. And the architect planned for just such versatile use. With the kitchen, this family room is no less than the operating "hub" of the plan. while set away from it, is reached from it. Yet, from the entrance, living room, kitchen, or bedrooms, there's no cross-traffic. A natural corridor between the kitchen and family room keeps the living parts of the room clear. A dividing wall short of the ceiling (see picture at- right) keeps the kitchen to itself, | but being partially open gives you | more respect for its size Sliding doors let you step right | | to activity terrace, [ THE MASTER BEDROOM is much more than the "name im- 3nd complete the architectural ef plies -- i's a retreat for parents "It Sure Is Quiet" Says Small Boy Caring For Polio Patients DURAND, Ill.

Better. named it's the parents' living bedroom The sitting area is a small al- cove, 4x10 feet. It is away from the traffic of closets and bath- room and the sleeping side of the bedroom. Intimate seating ar- rangement and the 'set aside' space make this almost a room in itseif. The terrace is open on two sides, but covered by a logical ex- tension of the roof to meet the lines of the house. This small outdoor living area is reached im- 'mediately through sliding glass doors. Glass on this side of the room and over the' closet wall is right up to the gable lines. The adjoining bathroom is hand- somely related to the living- bedroom by colors of fixtures (turquoise), flooring (marbleized black, white, and turquoise). and walls (gray and white tile and off- white. CHILDREN'S BEDROOMS have special needs all their own. Some- times they're playrooms. For peace of mind (yours and theirs), | children's rooms should be private {and quiet. |And they should be |'easy to cléan. Of course, young- | sters like convenience as much as | adults, And eventually, {rooms for young boys and girls | become rooms for young men and women. Les, there are special needs -- and\ they're reviewed in the pic- tures here and on your fold-out floor plan, These children's rooms are well back from the street at one side of the house, The central core comes between bedrooms and the these| children's rooms. Its "inside" placement makes this possible and also prevents a waste 'of hall space. Also, the inside bathroom allowed the architect to place basement stairs behind it on an outside wall. As you see on plan, stairs have good natural light and easy access to the service - en- trance door. THE CENTRE CORE is lifted from the total plan as a complete living unit in itself. At left and below, you see it as it would be built -- without front living and rear bedroom wings. Streetside is closed, but well lighted with gable glazing. A ply- wood panel painted turquoise like the entrance door helps break up the solid massing of the front wall. The open side of the family room loses none of the advan- vantages of the activity terrace in the complete house. Family room (now a living room) has same glass areas -- sliding glass doors and awning windows opening on] the terrace. CLOSED OR SERVICE SIDE of first-stage house ideally faces north. Another terrace is formed at rear in area where third bed- rodm and bathroom are located in complete version.
