﻿THE LIBRARY OF
THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES﻿﻿PLAN TALKS
(by the Publishers)
“Angelus Distinctive Homes,” our second edition of a plan book; contains 100 new designs that we take pleasure in presenting to a critical public. Taken in connection with our previous book, “Angelus California Homes,” it gives a collection of beautiful home types that we feel is superior to anything ever before published.
Every plan in these two books has been built and sold again and again; some with the floor plans as shown in the book, and some with variations to suit the individual. All these plan variations we have in our offices, so that in many cases there are four or five different floor plan arrangements for the same exterior. These, of course, lack of space prevents showing here. We have shown the plan which we consider the most conveniently arranged.
The price of our plans and specifications has been placed within the reach of all, and at a ridiculously low figure considering their completeness and dependability. For those who require a larger, more costly structure than is shown in these pages, let us say that we have many such on display in our general offices and we also maintain an extensive architectural department of skilled men of country-wide experience who do nothing but design special plans of residences, from the most humble cottage to the most elaborate mansion, and at an economy of cost that is set forth on page three, which also gives complete information on how to order plans.
In conclusion, let us extend our thanks to our many hundreds of satisfied customers, who have built from our plans the past year. Many are living in the home of which they have dreamed for years. Many have built for speculation and have sold at a handsome profit, in most cases before the house was finished.
V e wish to assure our friends that we will continue to give our best and most conscientious services to all, whether you build a modest garage or a mansion. We have not changed our slogan—Complete Service to the Builder. We will be glad to hear from you.
Very truly yours,

NOTE—DO NOT FAIL TO READ “NOTES ON CONSTRUCTION,” ON OTHER SIDE OF THIS PAGE.
Three﻿NOTES ON CONSTRUCTION
The stock plans, specifications and bills of material comprising this book are worked out to coincide with the type of construction used in California. This is essentially a lighter type of construction than is used in sections of the country where more severe weather prevails. In order that, we may intelligently fill your requirements, if you do not build in this state, we have compiled a list of questions it will be necessary for you to answer to assist us in furnishing specifications and bills of material which will coincide with conditions in your section. These specifications govern the plans which require no changes. Building costs will run approximately 10 per cent higher in colder climates.
Local conditions require only single construction. Namely, no sheathing boards under siding on outer walls. Colder climates require double construction—solid sheathing and building paper under siding—specify which.
Local conditions do not require any sub-floor under ^.-inch finish floor. Colder sections do. Specify which.
The fuel used for cooking ranges locally is gas. Very few kitchen chimneys are built, merely a plastered hood over the range to draw fumes and cooking odors through the roof.
Sections requiring coal or wood range must have a brick chimney, which may be built, if necessary, where the hood is shown on plans, or adjacent to where you decide to place your stove.
Specify the kind of windows required. “Casement,” viz., hinged at sides to swing in or out, 01• “Double Hung,” viz., two sashes with pulleys and weights to raise and lower. The latter are best for cold sections.
Give us the above information where provided for on order sheets and any other that you think will be of value to us. If none or only part of questions are answered, we will use our own judgment in supplying you with correct specifications for your section, based upon our wide experience. In any event you will receive what is correct.

WE present in this number a little stucco bungalow of the California type that embodies all it is possible to work into a home as small as this. As a Bungalow Court unit it is ideal and has proven to be a great revenue producer when built in numbers on the same lot. You will find nothing lacking in this floor plan. It has the accommodation of a four-room house at about half the cost.

HERE is something different. A home that can be built on a narrow lot and still give large, easily accessible rooms at a small cost. Note the half timbered effect with plaster panels. A pleasing touch of distinction is given by the curved verge boards and clinker brick porch and foundation facing. At a slight additional cost a fireplace can be built in the end of the living room, where the two windows are, adding much to the homelike appearance of the room.

STUDY this plan. What more could be desired in a three-room layout? Everything built in. Large rooms and closets, fireplace and, last but not least, a lovely cement paved patio, opening off the arched porch. Part or all of the paving can be left out and flowers and grass planted in the patio, and one owner has erected a fancy awning over it.
This picture was taken just after finishing. Another few months will see this place a bower of beauty with shrubs and flowers. It is California modified Spanish in design and a winner.

This home is built right across the street from the preceding one, by the same owner. He sold both before completion. We do not know which is the best, as both contain all possible conveniences for a three-room home. No. 3 15 is a little plainer, with more severe lines, but certainly this is no drawback. Economy of cost and homey beauty are the predominating characteristics of both. You can not go wrong on either design.

HERE is the smallest and least expensive semi-colonial cottage we illustrate in this edition, but notwithstanding its size it has several features that are worthy of a more elaborate design. The attractive hooded entrance over the cement porch is thoroughly in keeping with the neatly mitred siding and shingled roof, slightly hipped at the gable ends. Inside is the large combination living and dining room with recess bed behind French doors. Large bed room and kitchen with built-ins and combination ironing board and breakfast table. The bath is conveniently arranged between screen porch and chamber. This home can be built on a thirty-foot lot.

iHE photo of this little bungalow shows what can be done for a small amount of money. While our estimates of cost will not apply in some parts of the East, several of these cosy little homes have just been completed locally at the lowest figure given. For a small family we cannot recommend this design too strongly. Note the fact that in this plan you do not have to go through the bed room to get to the bath from any other room, and that the door to the bath is not directly opposite the living room door.
See how cleverly the closet is worked into the end of the hall and note the space saving design of the kitchen, nook and screen porch. Just our idea of a honeymoon cottage.

Wide siding, graceful, well proportioned gables, neatly cut up sash with flower boxes and a wonderfully artistic fireplace chimney, all enhanced by the arrangement of the foliage, make nine out of ten people want to look inside whenever they see it.
Step inside with us and see the four large, well-laid-out rooms with built-in conveniences galore. A pretty arch leads from living and dining room and all other rooms are but a step between, off the central hall. The designer of this home knows what a home should be.

GIVING a foothold for all manner of clinging vines, the beautifully curved porch and chimney of this design provide a touch of character that is not often seen in a place so compact. Special care was taken in designing the rooms which go to make up this splendid four-room layout.
Designing is the correct word-mere planning would never produce
the results shown. Each room is complete. No guesswork here, not an unnecessary line drawn and not a line left out which would be needed to provide comfort and beauty. Mere words are inadequate. The photograph tells the story.

Inside, our usual complete well-thought-out floor plan prevails, with nothing left out which will help the owner feel at home, or save the housewife extra steps.

It is typically bungalow in type with wide eaves, beams, shakes and cement plastered porch columns. Cut up enough to make the gables interesting, it also provides light on at lenst two sides of all the four large rooms. All kinds of pretty built-in work is specified and the irregular shape of the plan gives excellent opportunity for the owner to try his hand at landscape gardening.

DIGNITY! That is what this little semi-colonial home says. Just enough curves to relieve its strictness. Trellises for vines are provided on the corners. Inside is one of the best four-room arrangements we have ever had the pleasure to present. Not an inch
of lost space and everything big enough, and yet-------economy of cost.
Study this well before you pass to another plan. It is hard to beat. Usual Angelus “built-ins” are all present.

THIS number is easily the most interesting four-room stucco we have in our files. It is a small edition of the Spanish Design that was awarded first prize in the California Stucco Home Contest. The treatment is superb and blends into an harmonious whole. The interior arrangement will delight the student of comfort—large, airy rooms, easily accessible, and numberless built-in features just about make this design irresistible to the lover of things unique. The wall and gate partially hide a rose garden at the side of the house, where afternoon gatherings may be had in shady comfort.

SEARCH far and wide and it would be bard to find a more satisfactory bungalow for two or three people. Rough brick trimmed with cobbles for the large fireplace chimney and three porch columns add a pleasing touch to an otherwise distinctive exterior. Rough stained siding and white trim complete the picture. The plan looks like a five-room house and virtually is, although the space is but four. The large well-laid-out rooms with extra wall bed and breakfast nook is what does the trick. Our designer used all his ingenuity on this one.

BSOLUTELY different is this home. It has been called a triumph and is undeniably worthy of the term. Long, plain lines combined with slight curves and just enough “ginger bread’’ makes a happy assembly. It is stucco with a low-pitched three-ply composition and crushed red tile roof. The large ell-shaped porch will be wonderful on summer evenings and the interior carries out all our ideals of cozy comfort. Where could one find a simpler or more convenient room arrangement? We feel we have made no mistake in including this design in our book.

It is so consistent in every line of the design from the semi-circle porch to the pickets in the fire-wall. Nothing jars on the artistic sense. The floor plan has six large, well-arranged rooms, with a lovely pergola terrace off of one chamber and the dining room. Angelus built-ins are everywhere in special designs.

Here is another that builders and home owners took to all over the country. We have enlarged the floor plan in this edition and shown the house from a different vantage point. We claim that it is without exception one of the finest examples of Rough Cast Spanish Stucco that we have ever seen.
The floor plan has the commodious appearance of a mansion of much greater cost while hardwood floors, Southern Gum inside finish and tile bath and kitchen make it a delight to the owner.

L The roof has been handled in a convincing manner, the small shed over the entrance doors breaking the front slope. Two pairs of French doors lead in off the terrace, which allows the living room to be made almost an outdoor room on pleasant summer days, with the added attraction of being in the shade. The balance of the interior is roomy and well laid out, fireplace, bookcases and desk, spacious closets and cupboards of Angelus design, and a convenient screen porch laundry room. Wall paper to harmonize with a silver gray enamel, and white enamel kitchen and bath makes of this home one of great charm and elegance.

,HIS is a cousin to our cover cut. The floor plans are nearly !like, but reversed. The outside appearance is a bit more conservative, but handsome withal. Note the arch over the driveway. A good point in its favor is the extra wide appearance it gives to the house. Everything is built according to very rigid specifications and you may be sure of a home that will stand the test of time in building this design.

THIS residence has a Belgian flavor, gained by closely cut eaves, vertical panels and brick facing and steps. It is a beauty, and to pick it as one’s home shows a grasp of the aesthetic which your friends will compliment you on. The interior has been laid out for a real home. Nothing cramped about it and every comfort and convenience has been thought of. Angelus built-in features are all here, from the ironing board to the writing desk. We feel this plan is hard to beat, and expect it to receive more than its share of attention.

ONE of the members of the firm is building this house for himself. After seeing so many hundreds of beautiful homes, does it not speak well for this one to have this distinction?
He likes it for the intensely homey appearance, which has been gained by the use of the wide eaves, low pitch and rough siding, with mitered corners. The floor plan is a whole story in itself and worthy of a great deal of study. We think it is a wonder and can easily say that the designer created a masterpiece of planning. Every touch possible to make it a home of refinement and charm has been given it, and the benefit of his almost uncanny “home feeling” has been given to you in this design.

A WIDE lot is necessary, but what a beauty is this red and white design. Flat roof and tile cornice. Square lines and dignity. You instinctively know that a man of wealth and success lives here. And it is not expensive. In fact, quite a bit lower in cost than many others. From a resale standpoint this home has no peers. It sells and sells fast. Take a walk through the various large rooms and see how well everything blends. Accessibility, comfort and roominess here abide, and we have left out no possible built-in features.﻿WE would like you to just have a talk with the folks who have built and are living in this wonderful architectural triumph. If you took their word for it, you would not look further. The house is a revelation of new ideas brought to a happy conclusion. Slate surface shingles with roll eaves, roof partly hipped and a wealth of windows make this very close to perfection, if such a thing is possible. Certainly we know of no ideas that could improve the floor plan, and we must judge the exterior by the hundreds of admirers. We shall be pleased to furnish the address of this home to anyone desiring to inspect it. We know that if you once go through it as it is built you will be unable to see any other.

The exterior of this beautiful home is a strikingly attractive combination of vari-colored cobblestones and clinker brick for the walls of the porch and the chimney, jazz shingled walls and heavy pergola. The shingles are painted a light forest green and the trimmings a warm brown. Cobblestones properly selected and laid up are very artistic, but the use of native materials, like any other good thing, can be overdone. One must have a good understanding of the eternal fitness of things” or a rustic effect among other styles will look out of place. The living room is large and well lighted, connected to the dining room by a large arch. The dining room has an extra large buffet under the windows, and all other rooms are roomy and conveniently laid out.

It belongs to the Spanish order and the finishing touches are the built up gable ends, red tile roof and bandsawed brackets. The floor plan is a five-room arrangement that has been well studied. Extra large rooms, with a blind mantel in the living room for gas heater, although the regular brick fireplace may be substituted. Angelus built-ins, of course.

THIS home is a variation of our No. 501-A, which has been very popular. It ranks well as an example of California Spanish, that type that was born in Southern California and has spread all over the country. It is plain, neat and rich, and has a very wide appearance for a house which is really narrow enough for a 40-foot lot. The room arrangement is “just right” and shows conscientious effort to give large, well lighted rooms for economy of construction. Note the immense living room all across the front, and the 3 sets of entrance doors. Some wonderfully happy gatherings can be held in this large room.

WE love this place. It is our idea of a real homey home. The grand porch and French windows are seldom met with in greater number. In fact, the tendency seems to be to cut down the size of porches. The typical bungalow, however, has big porches, and that is what this is. The floor plan is square and roomy. Five big rooms, well supplied with windows. Square edge, mitered siding covers the outer walls, and rough timbers form the porch posts. The two little “eyebrows’ on the roofs are interesting and relieve the monotony of an otherwise bleak expanse of roof. Note the flare of the siding at the bottom of the walls. It is different and distinctive.

The roof has been worked out to give a nicely cut up effect to a rather square floor plan. It takes real ingenuity to design a good looking roof and one that suits the balance of a house. It is like suiting a man's face with his hat. The plan shows thought. It is as well arranged as is possible to make it. No useless steps or dead spaces to run up the cost.

It is a snappy combination of pitch roof and stucco. Note the nice arrangement of the arched porch and cement terrace. The grounds need more foliage, but sunshine and water will remedy this lack. Much can be done to set this home off by proper landscaping. The floor plan needs no comment; a careful study will tell you more than we have space to print.

AVERY handsome and distinctive design which has one entrance porch and has the appearance of a single bungalow. This k plain white stucco with brick porch wall has gone well with builder and investors. The floor plan is very roomy for a three-room layout, having extra wall beds in the living rooms. All modern built-ins are specified and detailed in all our duplex plans. As complete and painstaking effort is used here as in single residences, regardless of price.

DESIGN NO. ¿90
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
A FOUR-ROOM duplex of charm. The unique treatment of the wall tops, with 4-inch plaster reveal, and the brick edged porch b and the hood over the front windows, makes an excellent example of Spanish architecture modified to California ideas.
The floor plan is very roomy and wide, being 36 feet over all.
It requires a 50-foot lot to show to advantage, but wherever built has proven a source of good revenue to the owner.

Ninety-seven﻿DESIGN NO. 491
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
THIS four-room duplex bungalow was designed to go on a thirty-foot lot, making it a wonderful revenue producer from a rental standpoint. The design is slightly Colonial in effect and the round columns on the cement porches, with small box cornice roofs slightly hipped and with slate surface shingles, make of this place one which will always look attractive.
The inside detail has been worked out with a great deal of careful study. Wall beds are in every room except kitchen, which is fitted with cabinets to a high degree of efficiency. All interior work is careful and neat and the most modern finish and decorations have been specified. We cannot too highly praise this duplex for a narrow lot.
Ninety-eight﻿DESIGN NO. 492 (duplex bungalow)
ANOTHER neat four-room duplex of Spanish design. It is some-/ \ what wider than the preceding one, making the rooms a little larger. This is a beautiful place, as will be seen from the photograph, and one should have no trouble in obtaining tenants at very attractive rentals. The red tile over the front windows relieves the straight lines and the pure white stucco makes this a very striking
house and a credit to any district.
The inside arrangement is as convenient as is possible to make it,
and “Angelus” built-in features abound. As with all our homes, nothing but the best class of construction is specified and the owner is allowed wide latitude in his choice of interior decorations.
A really profitable investment.
Ninety-nine﻿DESIGN NO. 493 (DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
DISTINCTION in every phase, this house needs no description and I certainly no undue effort to sell it. Word pictures are all right in lots of cases, but the clear-cut photograph on this page tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. It is ,‘right.” Brick, siding and shingles, Queen Anne casement sash and a floor plan that will get you tenants by showing the blue prints. If you can find one fault with this design you have done better than any other critic. We checked it well and it passed.

(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
IT is so difficult to find suitable remarks to describe each and every duplex we have submitted that we feel like saying, “See all other designs with the first ‘write-up’ and let it go at that.” You will have to be your own author more or less as the writer has run out of phrases, where the subject treated is so well covered by the photo and plans. However, here is a very strict treat-California stucco, de-
signed to fit on a 40-foot lot. It has four large rooms on each side and all Angelus built-ins. We have this front with several different room arrangements.

Hundred and One﻿DESIGN NO. 495
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
THIS has been called our “Duplex De Luxe,” and certainly it is the most distinctive one we have in our files. It is accompanied by a floor plan that is absolutely without an equal. We have every reason to feel that this plan arrangement is our best, inasmuch as we have had more requests for it in combination with other interiors than any other duplex plan in our files. The exterior also has come in for its share of changes. Many wishing to build three rooms to a side and cheapen the cost of construction. Any way you take it is a winner.
Hundred and Two﻿FLOOR PLAN
DESIGN NO. 196
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
HERE’S another winner. Nothing tiresome about this design.
The steep pitch hood roofs over the entrance doors and the built-up front wall relieve the “ensemble” of any monotony. Slate surfaced composition shingles are used on the hoods and a rigid specification for the three-ply flat roof has been compiled.
The floor plan is unusual for a four-room—two bed rooms and a wall bed in the living room. Lots of places to sleep and all required built-ins. Full cabinet kitchen, breakfast nook and large closets complete an altogether charming design.

Hundred and Three﻿DESIGN NO. 197
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
WE are very proud of what has been done with this design.
It is an adaptation from one of our most popular five-room
stucco residences, viz., No. 501-first edition, No. 501 A, this
book. If any duplex can really be said to appear as a single residence, this one does. You will find the floor plan very interesting, also, with a centrally located bath room and large bed closet in the living room. An artistic plaster mantel for gas heater is also specified, doing away with the extra expense of two brick chimneys.
H undred and Four﻿DESIGN NO. 198
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
Ethe picture tell the story, is our best advice in this offering. We consider it one of the neatest, classiest little stucco duplexes we have. Just enough “ginger bread” on the porch and main walls to create a pleasing difference. The tile over the windows is also pleasing. The floor plan is a sensible layout of four nice rooms to each side. One can be sure of quick rentals or an almost certain resale on a building of this design. It is a typical California Spanish.
Hundred and Hive﻿DESIGN NO. 499
(DUPLEX BUNGALOW)
A COLONIAL DUPLEX. What could be nicer? A well cut up roof, neat Redwood siding, casement cash and trellises and
, flower boxes. A floor plan that is right for a forty-foot lot, well laid out with a bed room at the rear that can be rented separately from the rest of the apartment. Angelus built-ins in every conceivable place, wall bed and plaster mantel. This design completes the selection of different types of exteriors for duplexes. Remember, we have innumerable combinations of plans and exteriors that we have been unable to show here.

DESIGN NO. 43F
(FOUR FAMILY FLAT)
HAVING started out to present one hundred new and distinctive designs to the public, we found so many before we got to flats that No. 100 is ‘‘it.” Let us say for the benefit of those who have not found the class of rental property they desire within our covers, that we have on file in our offices many other flats, 2-story duplexes, bungalow courts in single and multiple units in various widths, lengths and types, and it is always a pleasure to have a chat with you in regard to your ideas. Talking with us incurs no obligation whatsoever. We are here, first, last and all the time with ‘‘complete service to the builder. ’ We might add with a smile. The end.
