The Foster duplex is a pair of skinny little things who are conjoined twins. Originally designed as this duo to duplex a corner lot, we have successfully separated the ladies to find their own destinies. At a mere 40' wide, these two could saunter onto most infill lots without having to 'drop a few extra'. Corner lots are ideal as both gals tend to face different directions. The ample porch invites you to come relax and stay a while. Inside you'll find openness from the parlor through the dining room and into the kitchen.

A door off the dining room gives you private access to the backyard. All amenities are on the first floor including the laundry room and the master bedroom. These little ladies can be quite elegant, but they're not so spoiled that they need their own powder room. Everything they need to know in life they learned in kindergarten, including sharing with others. Besides, one less toilet to clean means more time to spend baking a quiche.

Upstairs are two bedrooms and a bath. The loft is big enough to host an intimate Tupperware party. One of the bedrooms in particular has a fun walk-in closet with window. This closet should definitely make any woman happy to display all her stylish clothes in (not that we're encouraging any peeping Toms).

All plans include four elevations, floor plans, foundation plans, at least two building sections, framing plans for the second floor and/or roof, and notes and construction details. This is everything you will need to build, but may not be everything you need to get a permit. Check with your local jurisdiction. Electrical layouts, cabinet elevations and engineering are not included.

The Arleta A 2850A - 3 bedrooms, 2 bath, 1353 square feet

THE Arleta was a fun design that was inspired from the pages of Radford's Artisitic Bungalows

. We tried to stay true to the original design while making sure to adhere to a more modern formula. We are still scratching our heads at how we fit so much into a space of less than 1400sf. The design deities have smiled upon us!

At only 28 feet wide, the house will easily fit on a narrow infill lot. The open porch and low roof give the house an immediate inviting and cozy feel. We took some 1910's design liberties on the 'A' and dolled her up. For a more craftsman look, see the original.

Inside, we have kept the classic vestibule and framed it with a couple of pillars. On the other end of the house we took the classic icebox service entry and turned it into a true mudroom.
While we have been fairly anti-hallway in public circles, we found that we couldn't do without it here. The original plan allowed the bedrooms and bathroom (singular) to open right out to the common rooms. Modern design parlance requires a little more privacy. Were you to want to bump privacy up to the realm of secrecy, you could completely hide the hallway. The opening at the parlor could be covered completely or have a secret panel built into the woodwork. The kitchen could have a sliding or swinging shelf at its opening. This turns the entire right side of the house into a saferoom!

This plan is unique in that we have included space for a furnace should you choose to install one. The ceiling in the hallway could be sheathed and then subframed to 8'. This space then becomes perfect for running all your duct runs within conditioned space. All rooms can be touched. And if you built the house right your registers should have no need to reach to the windows. What an archaic practice! Similarly subframe the two immediate closets and put your return towards the parlor or dining room.

At only 28 feet wide, the house will easily fit on a narrow infill lot. The open porch and low roof give the house an immediate inviting and cozy feel. We highly recommend gridded windows to complete the look. Or if you like a true bungalow look, see the 'A' version.

The Multnomah A 2840A - 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1900 square feet

IT WAS a dark and stormy night. Two shots rang out. A woman screamed. The butler did it. Of course it was the butler. It's always the butler. So maybe The Multnomah doesn't remind you of a Sherlock Holmes novel, but we think you will still find it intriguing. You could choose to live just in the coziness of 1137 square feet downstairs or take advantage of all 4 bedrooms in the well organized 1900 square feet. This mystery is also available in paperback and large-print editions.

Through the front door a formal entry awaits you. There is a coat closet under the stairs, but we think it would be too cool if you installed a secret bookcase door instead. Perhaps there should be stairs going down a torch-lit stairway to some sort of Frankenstein like dungeon laboratory. Or the pocket doors that lead into the hallway could be paneled to match the walls, closing it off to all but the priveleged. This would certainly allow more privacy in the bed and bath. For those not in the know, step into the parlor with faux exposed beam ceiling and sit in front of the fireplace a while. The built in bookcases on either side might have a secret lever disguised as a book. Or not?

The parlor flows into the dining room through a half wall and tapered columns. In there lay a built in bench for extra seating. And of course the seat should open for storage. Opposite, the built in hutch is flanked on one side by one of those pocket doors that should match the paneling. And we can't help but imagine a painting on the other side. We're thinking a portrait with the eye holes cut out...

Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom well laid out. A loft at the top of the stairs could function as a study area, a play area, or a crime scene investigation. The hall linen closet has been aligned right over the utility room downstairs. We highly recommend a laundry chute to quickly get rid of all your... laundry...

If you happen to be concerned about the number of toilets upstairs, we include an alternate layout showing a small additional water closet at the top of the stairs. We certainly don't mean to rush anyone through their morning rituals.

The upper floor has all been laid out based on attic style trusses. We have provided multiple bearing lines downstairs which should be entirely adequate should you choose to stick frame instead. The great thing about stick framing is that it would give you so much more versatility in storage space and secret nooks and crannies.

The Houston B 2448B - 3 bedrooms, 2 bath, 1 garage, 1152 square feet

Front Elevation

THE Houston came about as an entry idea for a contest from the city of the same name. The contest goals were simple; 3 beds, 2 bath max, optional garage, no more than 1500sf, ideal for Houston's climate and able to be built for under $99k (land not included). While we don't provide a material list or cost breakdown, a rough estimate shows that the price point was easily met, even for the expensive Northwest market.. However the Houston was designed for the balmy Gulf region, specifically as inexpensive replacement housing for Hurricane Katrina's victims.

One of the biggest problems with building rows of housing in short order is the margin for error and potential cost. For this reason the Houston was designed on 4' increments to require as little cutting as possible. Your foundation crew will be able to set up their forms in the morning and pour in the afternoon. Framers could lift the walls in a day. The roofers may take just as long. Sheetrockers, finishers, etc. can be in and out without a shout. Why?

First off, the 24' x 48' foundation complies with most foundation crews' 8' or 12' form boards. Also, the footprint allows for easy stud framing, whether 16" o.c. or 24" o.c. (recommended). Four foot increment walls almost everywhere means nailing up sheathing without leftovers. Incidentally, the trusses call out an 8" heel. This allows for the sheathing to cover wall height, a couple inches of foundation, and the remainder onto the heel. If you're using 4'x9' sheathing, again I say, NO CUTTING! Isn't that great? The Houston B adds a 12x22' garage option.

The 8" heel in the trusses allows for full attic insulation to the edge of the wall. This eliminates those thermal bridges that often occur on the edges of a building envelope. Furthermore, the odd 7.5:12 pitch of the main roof allows for 18" overhangs, charm, AND a roof plane of 16'. What's this mean? No cutting! Just slap down your 4x8 sheathing from ridge to gutter. The porch roof has the same trick.

Should you need a touch more width, the Houston A was modified for 25' wide and the same material efficiency. We can add a garage for you on request.

The Houston A was created at a developer's request to maximize his lot's footprint. Therefore the 24' dimension has been stretched a little. Four foot increment walls elsewhere means nailing up sheathing without leftovers. Incidentally, the trusses call out an 8" heel. This allows for the sheathing to cover wall height, a couple inches of foundation, and the remainder onto the heel. If you're using 4'x9' sheathing, again I say, NO CUTTING! Isn't that great?
