Floor plans, lighting plans, elevations, sketches, bed and cabinet details Includes copies of the original drawings by Robert W Patterson in 1966 for Mrs. Philip Wallis. Roc's comments: Jim Wallace asked me to draw the existing plans of his mother's house so that he might sell it. When he offered to pay I said no but when pressed I said my fee would be a box of cigars. Jim called me from the humidor at Dunhills in NYC. When I told him the brand I preferred he said "Holy Shit, I should have paid your fee!" Barbara Danielson bought the house and hired Barb Sassaman and me to renovate it. We enjoyed working for this very creative woman and she became a friend of Sass and mine from then on.

Site plan, demolition plan, foundation plans and details, floor plans, roofing plans and details, elevations, sections and details, plumbing, heating, lighting, sketches Roc's Comments: Jan Russell and her husband had a nice old early 20th century white clapboard farmhouse. They were introduced to me by Jan's brother, David Milliken. David worked for me briefly years earlier and we got along well. The Russells wanted an expanded home and we wanted to create a project that both accommodated their need to expand and ultimately looked like it had always been there. I think we accomplished that quite well as most people did not notice the change. Bob Bond was the builder. As an interesting side note. The Russells hired Dennis Bracale to do some landscaping and he volunteered to do a further expansion on their home. The work was done by Steve Demers a former COA design student who later worked in our office on the Gilley Museum project. So the Russell house has become a two generation project. I think Steve did a fine job.
