Hurd Comstock had the inspiration to turn to Walter Burley Griffin when he decided to build not one, but two houses adjoining. This was just months before Griffin won the Canberra Master Plan competition and moved to Australia. He brought with him the ideas he explored in this elegantly efficient design.
As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. The plan is ideally suited for a flat site. This house would be comfortable in a suburban or countrysetting. This spacious home has outside dimensions of approximately 31' x 55'.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD:
These plans are not complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL historic house, not a pseudo-historic tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf.
The original drawings from which these dimensionally accurate scans were made are kept at the Historic American Building Survey, in the Library of Congress.
