than average. It was designed for climates approximating that of Florida.
The home consisted of a two story living room overlooked by a balcony, the
dining room being separate from the living room. Two bedrooms and a large
bathroom were located on the ground floor. A tile paved loggia was laid on
the water side of the living room, connecting with the dining room. The roof
of the house included a sun deck, living deck and recreation deck, except
for the space taken by the upper half of the high room. Robert Law Weed of
Miami, Florida, was the architect, Paist & Steward were associate
architects, and the supervising architect was Mackey W. White. The builder
was Deigaard & Preston. The cost of the home, exclusive of equipment, was
approximately $15,000. The striking and original interiors (1933) were
designed by James S. Kuhne and Percival H. Goodman, Chicago and New York.
