A garage cottage, as the title names it, is a small house built as a residence above or beside a garage, a building type that became popular in the early 20th century as automobiles moved into American yards. This drawing pairs floor plans with elevations, so a viewer can read both the layout of the rooms and the outward appearance of the walls and roofline. Such paired sheets were standard in house pattern books and builders' catalogs of the period, which offered ready-made designs that prospective homeowners could order. Look closely at the plan lines and window placements to see how the designer fit a living space into a compact, utilitarian footprint.
