Nearby Meadowbrook Village had an open house 20 March, 1939 with a very illustrative write-up about the furnishing styles. It's a real decorator "snap-shot" of the era, and today would go well with anyone's style who likes the Cottage-core or Grand-Millenial aesthetics, even see some Scandi-style going on here!
While there aren't specific photos, a fun adventure all the same.
and this article below was published the year prior almost to the date, 23 March, 1938
more details about Meadowbrook Village as it was being created.
I would love to find copies of these "moving pictures".
This article mentions a Meadowbrook Village newspaper, have you seen a copy?
This article was published 9 April, 1940
What is neat is that for this project we do have blueprints, unlike the SFH homes built no more than 2-3 years prior, and the blueprints illustrate known items that were selling features such as the greenhouse
and of course the infamous pool.
