Sinc: dancing is their hobby as well as their business, the home they want should have big unbroken spaces that can be thrown together for merry evenâ€" ings. And the whole family held out fcr a swimming pool and a paddle toeXAâ€" nis court, for a pinzx pong table~ and movicâ€"equipment, not to mention Mr. Murray‘s special request for a soda fountain because he says hes always had a suppressed desire to shake a mean milkâ€"shake and squirt those fanâ€" cy taps you see at the drug store. Along with all this play time equipâ€" ment, there must be space for lots and lots of books: there must be big bedâ€" rcoms; there imust be a deck for sun baths, an enormous hospitable kitchen, many and capacious closets. Quite a big order for one house of moderate size! No wonder it took quite a lot of fooling. with pencil and paper to work out a plan that would incorâ€" porate all these things and still be a comfortable serene retreat from a busy and dramatic world of work. MANY ACTIVITIES As the hous> has finally worked itâ€" seif out in the plans, it not only solves spezific problems for the Murrays, but we feel that it has many suggestions for by Elizabeth MacRea Boykin for instance, is placed be.weon the livinz rcom and the game room so that the girls and their parents can enterâ€" tain at the same time without getting in each other‘s way. But the term game room is misleading, for this is a room of poised and spacious misn, conâ€" tinuing the same decorative design as is used in the living room and dining room. Thus when the three rcoms are thrown together they losk like one beautifully prepoartioned interior. Yot worked into the furnishings of the on in omm mss omm i en . > dn n The kitchen is very important in the Murray menage, not only because Mrs. Murray is a meticulous chatelaine, but also because Mr. Murray himself loves to cook,. He often leads a gang straight to the kitchen to watch him â€" make magic with a fryin> pan or a cake tin. And so Mrs. Murray felt that a kitchen in their home would never be complete without a corner where a genial bunch of guests could hang out comfortably. All this added up to a sparkling white and green kitchen with every possible convenience unit â€" built into smooth wellâ€"fitting wall cabinets reaching around one wide corner of the room. The walls of this corner of the kitchen will be built of glass block which gives light on the insides of the cupboards The furnishings of all these rooms will not be strictly modern or strictly traditional but rather a smart blendâ€" ing of fine antique furniture with modâ€" ern backgrounds and modern textures. In the dining rcom, for instance, the tables of porcelain white lacquered finâ€" ish will be used with beautiful old @Queen Anne chairs in dark finish. In the living room an 18th century breakâ€" front cabinet will dominate an imporâ€" tant wall, while the uphoilstered furâ€" niture will be mostly modern in pale neutral textural fabrics with draperies in an offâ€"white textural material. Color interest will depend on dynamic acâ€" cents of jade green and highlights of old Sheffield silver. A classic scroll deâ€" siin is introduced subtly with a wide width of wall paper running around the top of the walls of the living room just below the ceiling and repeated again around the top molding of the dining room to break the austerity of the modern structural lines and broad expanses of mirrored walls. closed or opened with very little comâ€" motion. These three rooms will all be finished in complementary design with floors in highly waxed dark hardwood and wood panelled walls in a porcelain white finâ€" ish of lacquer quality. Rugs in each room will be offâ€"white and of shaggsy texture with thick fringed edgesâ€"easy to take up for dancing when desired. In the living room there will be one large ruzx whilse the dining room will have two smaller rugs, one under each table and in the same rectangular shaps as the tables. other families with growingz < and many activities, The dinin for instance. is placed The living room is planned as a conâ€" bination living room and library, while the dining room is interestingly laid out to accommodate two tab‘ss instead of one. Thus the Murrays on i{iamily evenings can Sit around an intimate table of moderate sizs, For party ocâ€" casions the two tables can be put toâ€" gether to make one long festive table or left separate, as shown in the photoâ€" graph. The room is large enough to make this arrangement graceful and individual.

This view shows the main filoor of the Murray house looking from the living room through the dining room and into the play room beyond.
