Pattern Book: Rock Springs
ROCK SPRINGS is the spirit of the mountains in architectural form. It represents a style highly popular in the heyday of the Western lodge, with antecedents found in Craftsman neighborhoods across America. Everything about this house, from the stumped columns, battered brick-and-stone bases, hefty brackets, and Etruscan windows suggests solidity coupled with style. Builders and developers should note that wavy-edged siding can be used as an alternative to simple clapboards. The ground story of the home contains a living area, flex space, and spacious bedroom suite—the perfect situation for parents, in-laws, and other extended-stay guests. The second floor features the master suite, which is connected to the rest of the house by a gallery space. A large family room, open kitchen, and formal dining room complete the second floor, while the top story features two bedrooms with Jack-and-Jill baths.
