The first third of the 20th century is known as the era of "The Comfortable House," a time when technological improvements and ongoing traditional styles helped bring the lifestyle of the growing American suburbs to more and more people. Designer-contractor Alice Washburn (1870-1958) was only one of many creators whose Tudors and Bungalows and Colonials in many ways still shape what we think of when we talk of Home. But even among these others, Washburn's houses stand out for their sensitive planning and their distinctive yet familiar detailing.
