Atrium is focal point of tour house 1:1 • I'I,AIM>I:/\IKH - HTM/VV. SKPTKMHIH :TO. IWN One of the four homes featured on the Memorial Hospital Auxiliary's Annual Tour of Homes, Wednesday, Oct. 5, is the Kramer's spacious wooded home, hidden among the oaks and wildflowers on a secluded cul-de-sac. The cedar house stands . tall and unobtrusively amid nature's varied grasses and trees. The focal point of this unusual home is the glassed-in atrium. Here, colorful potted plants and trees create a restful garden / setting for the rooms surrounding it. The atrium opens to either the living room, dining room, or master bedroom: it can also be viewed looking down from the second floor gallery. The master bedroom has a spiral staircase leading to the gallery. Hie gallery can also be approached by another, more conventional staircase in the center hall. Just off the gallery sitting room are the two boys7 bedrooms and bath; there is also « guest room. The place commanding the most attention on the second floor is the computer room-library. This is where the family can pursue their hobbies, listen to music, read, or play one of the two antique organs in the house. Mr?- Kramer designed her own kitchen and sewing room, utilizing every inch of space to the fullest. From the skillfully fashioned knife storage unit beside the stove to the concealed work-saving features of the appliances, there is truly a "place for everything". The cozy breakfast area is enhanced by the use of an antique iron stove which helps to ward off early morning chills. Glass panels in the roof allow light and sun to enter the three- storied dwelling and warm the children's "winter room" on the third floor. Acircular fan draws heat from the lower floors and makes it unnecessary to use any other device to make the area comfortable. THE KRAMER HOME This unique home, along with three others will be shown between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Oct. 15. Tickets may be obtained on that day from either the Springhouse on the square, the McHenry County Fairgrounds, or at any of the tour nouses. Before Oct. 5, they will also be sold at the Gift & Thrift Shop, downtown, or the hospital gift shop.
