Overview

This two-floor residence had many rustic elements, board and batten siding, shake roofs, Dutch doors, fieldstone floors, variegated brick walls, exposed roof beams, and prominent, wrought-iron hardware on cabinets, doors and shutters. The garage featured a large bird house, a pun on the designer's name, that apparently became a trademark of his designs.
