Architectural blueprint - La Flecha Residence by Lillian Rice - 1927
You are purchasing a large format architectural print, 1 sheet, each measuring 24"x36".
The Southwestern style, which reached its heyday in the 1920s, was an eclectic mix of styles and sources, from Native American pueblo, to Mexican Mission, to Spanish Renaissance. Even elements of New England Colonial worked their way into the mix through the influence of schools and outposts built by the Federal government.
When Rancho Santa Fe, in San Diego County began to grow, Lillian Jenette Rice was commissioned to provide a series of designs for small, single story homes in the Southwestern style. Her skillful work incorporated graceful exterior details with floor plans centered around sheltered courtyards and patios, an arrangement ideal for the climate of the southwest. Her homes are as livable today as when they were first built in the 1920s. Her floor plans require almost no alteration to be brought into line with current expectations.
In all I am able to offer to you
6 different designs by Ms. Rice
. This model is called the La Flecha Residence, after its first occupants. Please visit the
Southwestern Style
section of my eBay store to see additional designs in this set.
The prints you are purchasing are crisp, high resolution black line copies on white bond paper. The original drawings were beautifully delineated in 1991. This drawing sheet includes a floor plan that also shows the site, and the front elevation. The original drawings rest in the Library of Congress.
As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. This design offers charming front porch and good access to light and ventilation for each room. The room names reflect its later use as a small commercial space. But it could easily be reconfigured to provide at least 2, possibly 3 bedrooms. Although ideal for a flat site, these plans would also work on a low sloping one. Excluding the separate office and bath at the back, the main house has outside dimensions of approximately 31’x54’.
Please visit my other auctions for many other drawings I am offering. I have house plans in wide variety of styles including Colonial, Craftsman, and Prairie, as well as plans of architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Irving Gill, Purcell & Elmslie and others.
