Blame it on Ester and Judith
“All of his periods were the result of change in the economy except for the last – which one can hardly call a period because he had no opportunity to carry it forward than one house….. But the presence of so many three-quarter height screen walls is haunting. The (Skolnick) 
house (fig 2) is essentially a carousel, an open space with a merry-go-round in the middle. …How he would have continued we can’t say.” 1
A few final thoughts Furniture
The only furniture Rose needed to buy for this house was the bed (which could have been built by Schindler for all I know) and the piano. All the other furniture is 
built-in, mostly of plywood. (Figures 1 and 2). The furniture shapes the space and is part of the design.
The plywood wainscot in the living room runs from the fireplace, behind the couch and dining area, then takes a Schindler notch around the 
kitchen pass-through. It reminds me of the front elevation.
The green roofing wrapped pop-out 
below the bedroom window contains a planter box and a built-in dresser for the bedroom (Fig 3).
Some more thoughts
Space
As usual, Schindler creates a world with three roof/ceiling planes (Figure 1). Here the planes are 6’-8”, 8’-0” and 8’-8” high. The first two heights are typical, appearing in most of Schindler’s houses, particularly in his later Schindler Frame Houses. The third 8’-8” plane is unusually low, reflecting the modest budget and small size of the house.
The steps in the ceiling never occur over a wall, but are offset about 2’-8”. Almost every room has a step in the ceiling. Even the bathroom has a ceiling step, although the room is so small that it would be difficult to see (Fig 2). The steps make the spaces within each room more dynamic and imply spaces that flow through the walls, somewhat like the Erlik house but without the high glass. The ceilings step up to the rear, but also on a diagonal towards the living room 
southwest corner, making the living room the tallest (8’-8”) space (Fig 3).
