He is best remembered for his Palace of Fine Arts, built for the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, California. Maybeck's house for physician, Howard B. Gates, eclectically combines bold classical elements (the corbels supporting the balconies) with Swiss Chalet elements (the low slung roofline) that were popular with Arts & Crafts designers. The interior exhibits the exquisitely detailed use of natural materials that is a hallmark of Maybeck's residential work. This extensive set of 10 drawing sheets includes floor plans and elevations, sections, and interior details. The 3-story design has a split level entry with kitchen and dining on the lower level, opening onto a terrace. Above these are a living room and music room, as well as a bedroom suite. More bedrooms and a bathroom can be found in the attic level above. The house was built on a sloping site and Maybeck exploited this with the split level entry. As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. This house would be most suited for a moderately sloping lot. It would be comfortable in a suburban or country setting. Excluding terraces, this house has outside dimensions of approximately 53’x 33’. Please visit my other listings for many other drawings I am offering. I have house plans in wide variety of styles including Colonial, Craftsman, and Prairie, as well as plans of architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Irving Gill, Purcell & Elmslie and others. SHIPPING: Your drawings are shipped to you, rolled, not folded, in a Priority Mail tube. This listing includes architectural prints ONLY.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD: These plans are not complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL historic house, not a pseudo-historic tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: Orders shipped to addresses outside the USA may be subject to customs duties at their destination. The buyer is responsible for any such duties. The original drawings from which these dimensionally accurate scans were made are kept at the Historic American Building Survey, in the Library of Congress. (CR004)
