Our team of Austin architects transformed a 1950s home into a mid-century modern retreat for this renovation and addition project. The retired couple who owns the house came to us seeking a design that would bring in natural light and accommodate their many hobbies while offering a modern and streamlined design. The original structure featured an awkward floor plan of choppy spaces divided by various step-downs and a central living area that felt dark and closed off from the outside. Our main goal was to bring in natural light and take advantage of the property’s fantastic backyard views of a peaceful creek. We raised interior floors to the same level, eliminating sunken rooms and step-downs to allow for a more open, free-flowing floor plan. To increase natural light, we changed the traditional hip roofline to a more modern single slope with clerestory windows that take advantage of treetop views. Additionally, we added all new windows strategically positioned to frame views of the backyard. A new open-concept kitchen and living area occupy the central home where previously underutilized rooms once sat. The kitchen features an oversized island, quartzite counters, and upper glass cabinets that mirror the clerestory windows of the room. Large sliding doors spill out to a new covered and raised deck that overlooks Shoal Creek and new backyard amenities, like a bocce ball court and paved walkways. Finally, we finished the home's exterior with durable and low-maintenance cement plank siding and a metal roof in a palette of neutral grays and whites. A bright red door creates a warm welcome to this newly renovated Austin home.

This mountain modern cabin is located in the mountains adjacent to an organic farm overlooking the South Toe River. The highest portion of the property offers stunning mountain views, however, the owners wanted to minimize the home’s visual impact on the surrounding hillsides. The house was located down slope and near a woodland edge which provides additional privacy and protection from strong northern winds.

This Grand Designs home in South Manchester was such an exciting project to be involved with. As part of the team delivering an initial concept design by Swedish Architects Trigueiros Architecture, we provided architectural support to TA, including detail design, site support, and statutory approvals from RIBA stages 3-7. This project was an opportunity to be a key figure in the design and delivery of a truly bespoke family home. Working with visionary clients with a keen eye for design and stunning architecture, and collaboratively alongside an international team of architects, designers, interior designers, and specialist craftsmen, a unique architectural form was created. But more importantly, a fantastic family home was delivered. In a climate of Covid and unprecedented pressure on the construction industry, the pitfalls of procuring a one-off solution, via an international team were managed and resolved. With a construction budget of £1.5-2m, the new home delivers circa 600m2 of floor area in an innovative and delightful way, creating unusual and interesting forms. Large areas of glazing over 3 floors, fill the spaces with natural light and allow views across a fully realised external landscape scheme and sunken garage. Each aspect of the design combines and coalesces to make this scheme truly stand out, in what is a highly desirable part of South Manchester.
