$iis Booklet of Designs of Dwellings, together with
general information relative to the erection of a dwelling, is
issued for the guidance of intending home-builders through
the Corporation.
The information herein will facilitate the preparation
of the plan particulars of the proposed dwelling.
It is not intended that any one of the designs should be
considered an ideal home generally-that could not be
without knowledge of the particular building site and the
requirements of the home-builder, which are essential
factors in the planning of such a home ; therefore, no
particular design need be accepted as it stands. If, however,
it should happen that a design meets with the requirements
of a prospective client, he may select same without

It is the policy of the Corporation to assist and
co-operate with intending clients in the designing of their
homes, and, by ascertaining their ideas and requirements,
to plan homes which will conform, as far as architecturally
possible, with their desires in detail.
Simplicity of is the dominant feature of all
the designs, the purpose being to reduce to a minimum the
initial cost of the dwelling and the consequential later cost
of repainting and repairs.
Intending clients are cordially invited to consult with
the Corporation in respect of any features or points
contained herein, or not mentioned herein, concerning
which they may desire information or advice.

Information for GuiJance
of lntendinj Applicants
Plan and. Specification
The plan and specification of the proposed home is
prepared by the Corporation, tlie fees for which are set
out in the' leaflets explanatory of the Housing Schemes
operated by the Corporation. The plan and specification
may be specially prepared to suit the particular wishes of
an applicant. The Corporation employs an efficient archi-
tectural staff for the purpose of carrying out such war k
and keeps in touch with the latest developments and
improvements in building materials, designs, and matters
concerning domestic architecture generally.
The designs of dwellings in this booklet are known
by design numbers, such as " Design No. 35 " or " Design
No. 40 " as the case may be; the number of a particular
design, if selected or referred to by an intending client,
should be quoted.
Building Site
Before a building site is purchased, enquiries should
be made to ascertain whether it is generally suitable-
particularly, if the area is subject to local or general
flooding, or continued dampness after wet weather, and if
rates, land tax, and other assessments have been paid.
Information as to water, electric light, gas, or drainage
facilities, if required, and building by-laws of the Local
Authority in respect to allowable distances of a building
from front and dividing fences, should also be ascertained,
and these matters taken into consideration when planning
the home.
The Local Authority will also afford information as
to the position of sewers, and the desirable layout for
drainage schemes.
[Page Five
Page Six]
Preparing the Site to Accommodate tne Home
In cases where the site for the home is of a sloping
nature, consideratir11 should be given, when planning the
home, to avoid undue height of stumps by excavating
and/or building up the ground. This may result in the
steps being shorter and better placed so as to be more
readily accessible. Any necessary building up of the
ground should, however, be delayed until after the stumps
have been placed in position, as it is better that the stumps
be set into the natural earth and the filling-up material
placed around the stumps.
Designing the Home to Suit the Site
This is one of the most important steps to be taken
when considering the design of a home.
The surrounding views, aspects, prevailing winds,
physical conditions and contours of the locality, and, as
before mentioned, the drainage facilities and the
possibilities of excavating and filling, should all be taken
into consideration, and the floor plan designed to suit these
features and circumstances.
The floor plan, which is designed to suit the special
features of a partiCular site, might require a complete
departure from orthodox ideas of past years, by arranging
the rooms in an entirely different manner from the usual
planning. An example hereof will be seen by referririg to
Design No. 56, which has been designed to take full
advantage of a panoramic view from the back of the site, the
view from the front having no features of interest. Brisbane,
and many other towns in Queensland, by reason of hills
and points of eminence, provide many instances where
planning of this nature can be carried out with striking
effect.
Designing the Home for Future Ex.tensions
A home of small. floor area may be designed at a
cost within the financial means of the applicant in such a
manner that verandahs, rooms and/or other accommoda-
tion may be added thereto at a future date, with very little
alteration or disturbance of the original structure. . Pros-
pective home-builders desiring this feature should not
hesitate to seek advice from the Corporation thereon.
Further advances to enable clients to enlarge or improve
homes already erected through the Corporation may be
granted.
[Page Seven
Furniture in Relation to Rooms
An important point which 1t is advisable to consider
when planning the rooms, and which has an effect of
providing for comfort, is the selection of suites of furniture
to harmonize with windows, french lights, archways and
other openings in the room. This feature, if overlooked,
can easily spoil the practical .and the aesthetic effect as
well as cause inconvenience in the placing of the furniture
in the rooms.
Estimated Cost in Relation to Tender Received
If the estimated cost of any design herein chosen by an
applicant appear to be beyond his financial means by an
amount of, say so or thereabouts, he need not, on that
account, discard such design. It is possible that the lowest
tender may be somewhat lower than the estimate shown.
On the other hand, if the tender happen to be beyond the
applicant's financial circumstances, arrangements may be
made for an increase of the advance or for the deletion of
certain items from the specifications, so as to reduce the
cost of the dwelling to a sum within the means of the
applicant.
Estimated Cost Relative to Each Design
The estimated cost shown under each design is intended
to give only an approximate forecast of the cost of the
dwelling as a result of tenders. Furthermore, such estimated
costs are based on building costs in Brisbane obtaining at
the time of the issue of this booklet. The Corporation,
therefore, does not accept any responsibility for any varia-
tion between the e s t i m ~ t e d cost of any design and the
tender therefor.
It may be mentioned that many circumstances have a
bearing on constructional costs, among which the following
may be cited:-
(a) The degree of accessibility of the locality for the
supplying and transportation of materials.
(b) Fluctuations in the prices of materials and other
building costs.
( c) The area of the allotment in respect to the
amount of fencing required.
( d) Drainage requirements.

Brief Observations on Various
Building Materials
and their Uses
.t
Intending home-builders in country districts are
advised not to specify materials not used in their districts
unless there are workmen available, competent in the use of
such materials.
Concrete Stumps
Concrete stumps may be procured already manu-
factured or may be cast in position on the site. Concrete
stumps are recommended to be used when the house is
intended to be erected near to the ground as shown in many
of the designs in this booklet. The extra cost over wood
stumps for a dwelling of average size, with the stumps say
2 feet out of the ground, is approximately 12.
UJall Papering
Papering of walls is now being effected to a great
,extent in wood framed and sheeted dwellings since the
manufacture of fibrous plaster in this State. This material
can be made to form a solid and unbroken surface to receive
the wallpaper and thus make a very satisfactory job,
thereby removing the prejudice against the use of wallpaper
which has existed in Queensland for so many years.
UJall Panelling
Queensland produces many beautiful timbers which are
manufactured into plywoods and used for the purpose of
panelling the walls of rooms; the more popular plywoods
are Red Tulip Oak, Walnut Bean, and Silky Oak, but
Queensland Pine, Silver Ash, and Maple are also in favour.
It is the practice to surmount the panelling with a frieze
(the space between the panelling and the ceiling) of fibrous
plaster or fibro-cement, which, when painted, forms with
the polished panelling an effective method of wall treatment.
Internal Hardwood Floors
As special and seasoned hardwoods are now available,
hardwood timber may be used for internal flooring with
greater confidence. Among these hardwoods are figured
varieties known as Red Tulip Oak and Queensland Satinay.
Among other varieties are Grey Iron Bark, Spotted Gum,
Blue Gum, Red Lustre, Crows Ash, and Red Stringy.
When used in living rooms and vestibules it is the practice
to treat these floors by having them machine sanded and
polished.
[Page Nine
If convenient, intending home-builders are advised
to pay a visit to the showrooms of the Sub-department of
E'orestry, Department of Public Lands, George Street,
Brisbane, where they may inspect a wide range of timbers
suitable and prepared for hardwood floors and plywood
panelling, and in many cases the use thereof is practically
illustrated by exhibits.
Ceilings
Other than timber, the three ceiling materials which
may be used are fibro-cement, fibrous plaster, and
art metal, each of which makes a satisfactory job and
produces a pleasing effect.
IDalls Adjoining the Bath
In substitution for the less presentable materials, such
as galvanised iron, the walls of the bathroom may be finished
with glazed tiles, tilux, duratile, art metal, or fibro-cement.
Bathroom Floors
Bathroom floors, where skilled workmen are available,
are generally finished by the laying of a terrazzo floor or
a tiled floor.
Drainage
Where proper drainage facilities are available,
advantage should be taken to install a complete drainage
system. Where no drainage facilities are available,
and where the soil is of a non-absorbent nature, the system
of installing absorption trenches or sumps to receive house
drainage is strongly condemned. In these circumstances
it is better to broadcast the water over the surface of the
ground.
The installation of a septic system of sewerage disposal,
where the soil is of a suitably absorbent nature, and where
the Local Authority approves thereof, is recommended.
