Homes for workmen; a presentation of leading examples of industrial community development
Homes for Workmen is a 1919 catalogue of house designs issued by the Southern Pine Association of New Orleans, Louisiana, for industrial community developments and working-class families. The pages pair pen-and-ink perspective drawings of each house with floor plans and elevations. A designer could take from them the clean line-drawn house facades, compact plan layouts, and the simple porch and gabled-roof massing typical of early twentieth-century American domestic architecture.
