Exterior Overview of Classic Home 048, Walker Guest House, by Paul Rudolph, Architect.
"Two bays on each side of this guest cottage are filled with pivoting panels which function as 1) the enclosing wall, 2) the ventilating element, 3) the shading device, and 4) the hurricane shelter. The third bay is filled with glass, to admit light and [provide] splendid views. When the panels are closed, the pavilion is snug and cave-like — when open, the space psychologically changes, and one is virtually in the landscape." — Paul Rudolph. The Architecture of Paul Rudolph. New York: Praeger Publishers, 1970. p42.
From 500 Small Houses of the Twenties, complied by Henry Atterbury Smith, from "The Books of a Thousand Homes," copyright 1923. The 1990 edition is published by Dover Publications, ISBN 0-486-26300-2.
