Set in a dense South Austin neighborhood just minutes from downtown and Zilker Park, this residence is carefully organized to separate public and private space. Open living, dining, and kitchen areas connect directly to the backyard, supporting a fluid indoor-outdoor lifestyle. An L-shaped plan, along with a minimal palette of limestone, glass, wood, and exposed steel are used inside and out. Thoughtful opening placement allows dappled light and shadows to constantly play with and highlight these warm materials.
