“The Watson Residence is a long one-story house built on a terrace on a sloping, forested site in the center of the state. The enclosed living area of the house is separated from the bedrooms by a screened patio that also serves as an entry foyer. Canvas awnings are incorporated into the patio roof framing and provide varying degrees of shelter, depending on the season and the weather.”
