Chicago.: Industrial Publications, Inc.. 1945.. 96 pp. booklet, 8 1/2 x 11 inches, in color pictorial paper wrappers. Illustrated with photographs and line drawings, together with floor plans and brief descriptions of the home. Very good condition. A particularly interesting collection of designs The introduction states the booklet is in three parts: the first part features homes by architects (including Levitt and Sons) "designed specifically for post-war living. Many of the houses have not yet been built because of war restrictions." The second part contains "plans of houses that have been previously published and built." The third part contains drawings relating to interior decor and storage. This is an "idea book," as no plans are for sale from the publisher. The booklet, in very good condition, is intended to stoke the pent-up demand for new homes released with the end of World War II. What is unusual and appealing about this collection is the considerable coverage of more modern design, from the typical suburban ranch house to the larger example of "classical modern style...excellent for suburban country estates." .
