The design HW-31 by Rudolph A. Matern centers a family room adjoined to the kitchen and screened from formal spaces. It emphasizes compact storage, a flexible basement plan, and weatherproof sliding doors for informal family use with a fireplace and TV viewing.
A study plan for house HW-31 shows 1794 sq ft living area plus 322 sq ft garage storage. With basement the total volume is 33189 cu ft and garage volume adds 2254 cu ft at two thirds. The plan includes a summarized material list to aid local builders in cost estimation.
An outside cellar entrance is indicated on the HW-31 plan for use in building the house with a basement. This convenient feature maximizes basement use for storage of garden furniture swimming pool equipment bicycles and sleds and allows carrying them through. Modern steel doors keep such outside steps weather tight.
