Our 61st Competition.

We offer a prize of £1 Is. Od. for the design adjudged to be the best for a Residence. The client in this ease comes to the architect with the following information for a new house:The section is 27 ft. by 160 ft. and faces east, being one of a row of similar sites and is in the residential portion of the town, therefore being subject to a certain amount of smoke and dust. The site slopes to the back at a fall of 1 in 25. The house is to be built in brick with a stone slate roof. There are to be hall; living room 18 ft. x 14 ft.; dining room 14 ft. x 14 ft.; kitchen and the usual offices. On the first floor there are to be three bedrooms, dressing room, bathroom, w.c., etc., and in the roof provision must be made for a play room. The cost of the house and laying out the grounds is not to exceed £2,000. Mr. W. Gray Young of Wellington has kindly set this subject. Designs must be sent in finished as above, under a nom-de-plume addressed to “Progress,” 8 Parish Street, Wellington and marked clearly “Sixty-first Competition” on outside with a covering letter giving competitor’s name, and address of employer. Designs to be sent in by March 21st.
