The Library of Congress holds this architectural design for a house built for Irwin Laughlin, a diplomat, which sets it apart from the other residential designs on this board by tying it to a specific client. The record describes it as a design rather than a photograph of a finished building, so it presents the architect's plan for the house, with its layout and elevations, as a working document. Designs like this show how a residence was conceived before construction, when choices about rooms, light, and site were still open. The surviving copies in the Library's collection, including color and black-and-white film copies, make it possible to study the drawing's details.
