Eighteen closets, plus two outside storage areas, add more space. There~s an.enclosed music center off the living room for ~ built-in hi-fi campment afencedin play yard for the children, and a ground-level porch running nearly the full rear length of the ' house.

The function of the pitched roof is that it permits louvers to he installed in gable ends for ventilation of the attic space. The combination of thick insulation and the air wash lets relatively little overhead heat penetrate into the living quarters. | Walls are insulated with 3-inchthick mineral wool batts. Thick insulation here and in the ceiling contributes to comfort regardless of the seasons of the. year.: The pitched roof, which sweeps out over the rear porch, is covered with asphalt shingles. The architect recommends white asphalt shingles for maximum heat deflection and for smart, modern appearance. On the street side, natural stone facing combined with vertical w siding gives the, house a welcoming, friendly appearance.
