Asian Influences in Austin


The clients' passion for Balinese design and Zen philosophy led to the development of this impressive residence located in Tarrytown, Austin, Texas. The house was envisioned by Webber + Studio Architects with the purpose of providing a holiday- like feeling. Wooden facades, a generously- sized swimming pool and plenty of outdoor space build a fairytale image of modern living.

Floor to ceiling windows framed in wood, a contemporary fireplace in the middle of the living area and warm hues throughout create a relaxed atmosphere.

Design Father

A few months ago I found this website:  http://www.designfather.com/ and fell in love. Almost everything Design Father posts pretty much describes what fascinates me about architecture. It is for all those, who disapprove of folderol. For those who are rather into classics than nostalgia.
Their most recent post made me melt inside, without exaggerating. But come and see for yourself!
