for that reason this wide section with windows extending its full length was added to give the occupants the benefit of the sun which they could not otherwise obtain. The impression of airy spaciousness is actually conveyed by the arrangement of the rooms and by the wide full length windows to them, rather than by the actual floor space.
As will be seen from the plan, the entrance into each in one half of the building the apartment include two bedrooms with two bathrooms and in the other half they are three-bedroom ones with a similar number of bathrooms. access to the dining room on the opposite side of the lobby, and immediately across it, is by means of a wide sliding door. Thus, when these doors are opened a through draught is provided for both rooms.

All apartments are exactly similar in size except that in one half of the building the apartments include two bedrooms with two bathrooms, and in the other half they are three-bedroom ones with a similar number of bathrooms.
As it has been mentioned before the doors to all bedrooms open off the wide corridor from which is also reached the door into a drying room which is placed between the first and second bedrooms.
The kitchen, which is divided by a low partition into servery and kitchen proper, opens directly into the dining room. The servants entrance into the kitchen is through a doorway on the opposite side of the kitchen. The servants annexe to each floor includes the servants' yard
