DESIGN III <br />.SYMMETRICAL BRACKETED COTTAGE <br />Fig. 13 <br />ax <br />PRINCIPAL FLOOR <br />Fig. 14 , <br />f <br />DESIGN III. -11. Symmetrical Bracketed G'ottage. <br />`'PE trust our readers will agree with us in looking upon this <br />as a successful example of a rural cottage. It appears to us to <br />combine more beauty, both of form. and expression, than the <br />majority of designs of this class, and, therefore, to be worthy of <br />a little critical examination. <br />In the first place, the good proportions of this cottage strike <br />the eye. It is neither too high nor too low. The eaves could <br />not be raised or lowered a foot without more or less disturbing <br />this balance between the upper and lower portions of the <br />building. <br />Perhaps the first charm which this cottage has for the eye, <br />arises from its symmetry. There is such a direct and real <br />pleasure in this balance of three parts made by an arrangement <br />like this, when a leading feature, like the gabled window in the <br />front of this cottage, is' placed exactly in the centre, that the <br />eye has something of the same satisfaction in contemplating it " <br />that the ear has in listening to the rhvthm of easy and correct <br />versification. <br />f <br />
