Sure does. Similar to the first house I owned in '77 -- also an Eichler. There's a book on Eichler homes. They're pretty famous in architectural circles. What I loved about mine besides the design was the radiant heating from the slab...

My wife's family grew up with those chairs. Her father still has about 10 of them at his house and uses them every day. They are surprisingly comfortable.

They're nice chairs and collectable as "Mid Century" antiques. Ray and Charles Eames came up with alot of timeless designs http://www.designmuseum.org/design/charles-ray-eames

Recruitment Posters...

The Army never seems to get it right. They show guys in the mud, cold, wet, dark outside and all seem tired and undernourished.

The Marines just add a knife in the teeth for good measure.

And the Navy—well, they show a bunch of guys together in close quarters smiling—Brokeback Submarine?

Then there is the Air Force - here's the Air Forces' New Recruiting Poster…another of the many reasons to wear BLUE!!!

BTW, this is an actual AF member and goes by the name SHADOW
