Task: Design two neighboring spec homes
About:
Austin has some lovely new spec homes and some not so lovely ones. Most spec homes are caught in a scale change with awkward roofs, an architect’s idea mishmash or black + white super scaled ranch houses.
This is not any of that.
Some say a quiet neighbor is a good one.
As a reference to an award winning house designed in 1953 by the architect Herb Crume across the street, the architecture is a nod to his language of low slung roofs, wood ceilings, brick wall and indoor/outdoor spaces.
Each house is larger than those 1950s ones. 4 bedrooms, garages, with entertaining, storage and families thoughtfully considered.
Materials:
Warm White Brick
Unique Colored Steel Windows
Wood wall paneling + Ceilings
Design: 2021
Location: Allendale | Austin . Texas
For: Cary Paul Studios
About:
Inspired by the work of Joseph Eichler and A.D.Stenger, this spec home was meant to blend into its 1950’s neighborhood, with modern belles + whistles. A bridge design, to bring the past to present.
Located on the edge of Northwest Park.
Design: 2024-2025
Phase: Construction
Location: Bouldin Creek Neighborhood | Austin . TX
Collaboration with Ben Newman Studio
