Floor areas: Superstructure, 430 square feet. Porches, 145 square feet.
Plans 6504 and 6505 were designed for the central valleys of California, where outdoor sleeping is invited, by the mild nights.
These were designed for temporary homes to be used later as shops, bunk houses, storage buildings, or for other uses, so concrete floors are recommended. Low-cost "frameless" construction is shown in the working drawings. There are no ceilings. The shower baths shown in the plans can be installed cheaply.
The kitchens and work porches are large enough for the needs of a good-sized family. Plenty of windows are provided for ventilation. The kitchen arrangement shows a wood-burning stove, and a large refrigerator placed against an inside wall for protection from the outdoor heat. It is expected that meals will ordinarily be eaten in the kitchen or outdoors.
PLAN 6505,[36] FOR THE SOUTHWEST
Floor areas: Superstructure, 410 square feet. Porches, 125 square feet.
