MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO ENJOY THE GREAT OUTDOORS OST everyone has wished for a cottage. A summer M home perhaps, where the family could live in the open; a place to go week-ends and Sundays to rest, play, have a good time. But, getting the cottage you want has been difficult; so many details, then the uncertainties of building, the delays, expense; and you haven’t known just how to go about it. To help you, is the purpose of this booklet; by giving you helpful suggestions, the benefit of ideas learned through eight years’ experience in designing and manu- facturing summer homes and cottages; by showing you how a Togan Summer Home or Cottage can be had complete, a finished product, quickly and economically. Page 4 Summer Homes and Cottages are finished products, completely built in our factory, ready for use. You have no building to do. In buying, simply select the plan you want; the cottage is ready. It will be delivered at once. I IERE’S one important point we want to emphasize —Togan And, Togan Cottages are standardized; produced in quantities. This means economy in buying- You save the cost of building that you’d have the ordinary way. At the same time, you get a superior product. Each detail of Togan construction, each operation, is done by an expert. Special machines cut and fit all parts with minute accuracy. Workmen specialize, day after day, on the same operation. In this way, you get finer workmanship and construction that is perfect in all details. In buying a Togan, you get all the advantages that a factory-built product makes possible. You see it complete — you prefer to buy that way. It’s the same when you buy other articles of merit; like furniture, clothes, automobiles. Finished articles are superior; they’re best in design and construction. The beauty of Togan Cottages is recognized; you get designing skill of the highest architectural merit; cottages that are distinctive. Togan Summer Homes in particular have all the refinements and charm of the finest town-houses. Not only in exterior expression and com- pleteness of details, but inside arrangement as well. You naturally want your summer home to be attractive; in keeping with the natural beauty that surrounds it. Look at the pictures; they will show you in a better way than we can tell you. In buying your Togan Cottage, you will want someone to deliver it from the car to the site; to erect it for you, to handle all details. You need this service; and that’s why Togan Cottages and Summer Homes are generally sold through your local lumber dealer.

TOGAN - STILES GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN TOGAN COTTAGES SERIES “A” Discriminating people prefer Togan fineness of details. N Togan Cottages and Summer Homes, one exterior represents several floor plans. For that reason, all floor plans that are confined to a certain exterior design are grouped into a series and shown on the same page. This makes it easy for you to select the floor plan arrangement that suits your taste; you know, too, just what the exterior will be. Our eight years’ experience in manufacturing and designing summer cottages has proved that certain funda- mental types are wanted; that the average individual’s taste and requirements can be met in a given number of basic plans. These needs have been studied, and all floor plan arrangements designed to meet these needs have been standardized. You know that standardized articles are produced more economically; you save money in buying that way. The next two pages show the exterior design, with the floor plan of Series <‘A” cottage.

In all Togan Cottages, the porches —- perhaps the most important part of the summer cottage — are specially planned. Because the porch is usually the most used “ room,” if built right. Togan porches are made extra large, roomy, open; you get the full sweep of any breeze. Moreover, they’re screened on all sides and the openings fitted with casement windows. In this way, the porch can be closed up; made into a sun-room in bad weather. Even the smallest Togan Cottages have a bath-room; semi-detached, directly off the bed-rooms, as the floor plans show. You may not want the complete bath-room equipment right away, but this extra space serves so many purposes. For a store-room, closet-space; best of all, a snug little room for the children to sleep or play in.

It’s a most delightful arrangement; you get the full sweep of every breeze. If you’ve ever spent any time at a cottage, you’ll appreciate the size of the bed-rooms and above all, that each room has windows on two ex- posures. The windows are full-sized casements, swmging out. (See back page for prices) Page 9 Page 10 NTCHEN B ROOM 61‘ x ' 2P . q.

And Togan porches have all the openings screened; screens come furnished as regular equipment. Notice the picture on page 8; it shows how the porch screens and casements are arranged. (See page 19 for construction details) SERIES “ C ” CONSTRUCTION The quality of Togan construction is exceptional ANY families prefer a summer home completely appointed; one that has all the refinements of the town-house. A home located permanently at their favorite resort where summers are spent year after year. This is the type of home that should be designed along generous proportions; ample guest-room accommodations; a home especially suited for entertaining. The next two pages show this kind of home, Series “ C.” A charming summer design of permanence, made to go with five floor plan variations. Before looking at the plans, we want you to see some of the details that make the exterior so attractive. The broad sheltering eaves, the hooded entrance with side-seats; the casement windows, flower-boxes, trellises. Note, too, how the double windows in the gables add to the appearance; they’re made to swing in; to insure perfect cross-ventilation. These are some of the features worked out by Togan designers; advantages that you might not get in the average summer home. ?age It End View Li'L'ing Porch—$57k; WC); ww— r PORCH , {5&6 OULDN T you be alga . .

And notice, in most every case that each kitchen has its porch, so necessary for ice-box, extra cup-board and for additional storage place to keep things handy. Odds and ends — the children’s playthings; all must be kept somewhere; the back porch is the place. Togan kitchens are roomy and well lighted; the windows and doors are correctly placed for perfect ventilation. At the same time, each kitchen has just enough solid wall space for the stove, cupboards and work-table. Notice how the arrangement of the kitchen equipment is indicated on each plan; you’ll see, too, how the work-table or drain- board is placed directly under the window; women know that plenty of light is needed here. Kitchen cupboards, with shelves and drawers and space below for pots and pans, are furnished wherever shown on the plan. You’ll see them indicated; they’re built in and fit exact on each side of the sink. A drop-leaf table is likewise furnished. You’ll find it a big convenience. It folds back flat against the wall when not in use. Obviously, the summer cottage kitchen must not be too large; that would mean work; but you’ll want just enough room to make cooking easier by having things conveniently arranged and not crowded.

It gives M you the joys of out-doors, the air, the sunshine. But, merely " going” grows monotonous; roads and scenery become less interesting and the novelty of riding soon comes to an end. What most of us want is some place to drive to; to have a definite objective. To anticipate, to plan the good times that are in store makes driving all the more enjoyable. A summer home or cottage is the thing; a place out in the open for you and your family. It means more pleasure for them, a greater return in health and well-being. In Series "D” on the next two pages, you’ll find the ideal summer home for the family — a charming English cottage design. We’ve made it in five distinct floor plans.

Page 1 7 HETHER you prefer the simple, smaller cottage, or the summer home completely appointed, remember that Togan design and quality of materials go equally into each building. Because Togan construction is standardized; all walls, windows, floors and roofs —- all parts are produced in quantities. They are uni- form; the same careful workmanship goes into each. Workmen specialize day after day in turning out certain units; and all work is rigidly inspected. Togan Summer Homes and Cottages, like the finest all year Togan Homes, are built of the best materials; this is necessary, especially so in a cottage or home used only a portion of the year. You know how a building unoccupied, depreciates far more quickly than one in every day use. V ie'w showing Li'ving Porch Side—Series D Cottage Page 18 Details of Construction for Series A, B, C and D FOUNDATIONS -— Foundation posts are furnished with all cottages. These posts are cedar, 6 inches in diameter. They are placed at intervals of 6 feet, under supporting girders that run the full length of the build- ing. The girders are 6” x 6”. Each cottage has three girders, one on each side and one through the center. Griders are cut net length; they fit exactly. If concrete or brick foundation is wanted, plans for wall or full basement will be furnished, giving all measure- ments and details necessary for the mason to do the work. In case’of concrete foundation, credit will be given for post. FLOOR CONSTRUCTION —All joists are 2x8, 17%” on centers and are closed on the ends by 2x8 box- ing joists. There are doubled joists on the ends. All joists of over 9 foot span are bridged with 2x2 bridging. All joists, boxing joists and bridging are cut to exact lengths. A water-tight drip cap and water table is fur- nished to go around the building. This gives a finished exterior. The flooring is made up in complete sections, single thickness 3 feet wide and multiples of 3 feet long as the size of the building may require. Where the sections join, there is a special rabbet that makes the joint perfect. WALLS—The walls are made up in panels 3’ by 8’ 10” assembled complete with studding and siding. Where panels join, the studding is tongued and grooved, the tongue consisting of a specially designed lock-strip that fits into a corresponding groove in the adjoining panel. The bottom of the panel is also grooved to receive the the water-table drip. This automatically lines up the panels. The panels are fastened with lag screws to the sills. All holes are bored at the factory by specially de- signed machinery which insures accurate spacing and fitting. The studs are 2x4 of selected No. 1 Yellow Pine patterned to receive the lock-strip and siding The siding is tongued and grooved, special designed, Togan Novelty Siding, é” thick at the top and 2” at the butt, 33;” face. Togan siding insures an absolutely weather- proof joint. WINDOWS AND DOORS—The windows of all Togan cottages are specially designed out-swinging case- ment windows. Each opening has a pair of casement sash rabbetted together and rabbetted over the sill. These sash are hung on 3”x3” butts and are fumished with a casement lock at top and bottom, and one on the meet- ing stile. Each sash has a casement adjuster so that the sash may be held open at the desired angle. Each win- dow has a pair of screens, hinged to swing in and rab- betted together. The doors of all Togan Cottages are either in French design, or panelled with a door-light as called for on plans and specifications. All doors are hung on 3 butts with a standard key lock set, and a rim cylinder lock for use when closing the cottage for any length of time. Each door has a screened door hung and furnished with a complete screen door set. GABLES — The gables are made up in complete sec- tions of material similar to the side-walls. ROOF FRAMING—All cottage rafters are 3x6, well trussed with a tie beam and ridge—tie and have a large over-hang for the cornice. These rafters are notched over the wall plate insuring a perfect lining and a stong structual joint at the plate. The ridge pole is notched automatically spacing the trusses. The closures are dadoed into the rafters sides insuring a tight weather and light proof joint. The verge boards are extra heavy giving the necessary strength at this point; they also give a massive roof appearance. ROOF SHEATHING —All cottage root sheathing is tongued and grooved built up in complete panels of an average size of 3/-3” by 6/. For the cornices, both rake and level, beaded ceiling is used giving the finished appearance necessary at these pomts. INTERIORS—The interiors of summer cottages are unlined as the inside finish of the walls themselves is smooth clear Yellow Pine. The inside may be lined with wallboard and interior trim which covers all joints. For winter use however, we recommend lining the rooms in the following waysz—(a) with backing pan- els made of clear yellow pine beaded ceiling. g” thick; a(b) with backing panels made of dressed and matched Hemlock, g” thick, which are in turn covered with wall board and interior trim. When interiors are lined with beaded ceiling panels, or with Hemlock pan- els and wall-board, the inside of the outside siding is first covered with saturated asphalt building paper. Lining the inside with panels makes a double wall con- struction; the two walls with air space between, and the building paper lining, makes the warmest kind of build- ing. Inside lining panels and wall-board are carried in stock; prices on request. The interior partitions on all cottages are made up of beaded ceiling material and dressed studs, built up in complete anels about 3’x8/10” in size. These partitions run to t e plate line, giving the necessary amount of privacy, yet allowing over-head ventilation so desirable in cottages. All in- terior doors are hung and fitted in section at the factory. CEILING —No ceiling is furnished with any cottage unless specially called for. BUILT-IN FURNITURE—With each cottage, kit- chen cupboards are furnished as called for on the plan. These are built u complete ready to set in place.
