A model home which will be a feature of the 1950 Los Angeles National Home Show at the Pan Pacific Auditorium in Los Angeles, will be a Bermuda Modern style. The Show will be held June 10-18.

The model home was designed by Roger Raspach of Pasadena, who studied Bermuda's architecture at first hand before designing his California interpretation of the Bermuda home.

Carl F. Kraatz, executive manager of the Home Show, predicts an interesting and colorful show this year, with a good percentage of the exhibit space already sold out.
