Tucked away on an urban lot in a dense, quintessentially Austin neighborhood, 007 borrows the spirit of International Style fused with the practice of A Pattern Language to update the modern lifestyle.
Utilizing the corner lot, separation was created between pedestrian and vehicular access while a cascading of roofs steps the house back from the street, creating hierarchy for the pedestrian experience. Bridging horizontal rooflines keep a personal scale to the entrance, spanning across the architectural (and structural) two-story feature screen.
The floor plan connects the indoors to positive outdoor spaces through windows that not only allow comfortable light to wash in, but also frame perspective in this highly-urban environment. Landscaping serves as privacy buffer and completes the indoor-outdoor connection.
A centralized entry organizes the privacy levels between south-facing public areas and north side private rooms. The patterns reveal a sophisticated, yet casual concept that engages with nature in every room.
