Project Details

An existing 1960s home, located far from the street among specimen live oaks, was renovated and expanded to better suit the lifestyle of its owners. Large windows were placed to offer a dramatic diagonal view through the house to two sets of oak trees – a design strategy also explored in the Waco Residence. The interiors were transformed from the small, low spaces of an old suburban-style home to free-flowing modern spaces where the communicating dining, kitchen, and living room bask in the shared natural light and views. A bridge to the new master suite overlooks the dining niche and its magnificent oak. Other design features include a kitchen banquette with a rolling bench, a glass and steel stair, and a minimalist waxed concrete fireplace.
