Luncheon Rooms at Seatoun.

We give this month views, interior and exterior, and plan of refreshment rooms and village shop recently erected at Seatonn from the designs of Mr. C. F. B. Livesay. The plan is interesting as showing what can be done with a limited site, and the matter of treatment of the various parts of the building is ingenious, convenience being the principal object aimed at. The entrance porch opens into a small vestibule, and thence through a pair of glass swing doors into the main dining-room, with ingle nook, fireplace, very large bay window and recess leading to two verandahs, and to sitting-room. To the right of the entrance is a small parlour or office, having a direct view of the electric car terminus and immediately connected with both dining-room, shop and kitchen. Other accommodation not already mentioned includes four bedrooms, bathroom, glass covered verandah, laundry, store, etc. The prevailing tone of .the dining-room is white^, obtained by the use of a white wall paper, with little colour, and white table cloths. All the rooms are light and airy. The site is at present comparatively bare, and it will need time to set off the building to full advantage. The contractor was Mr. A. Robertson. ,
