Architecturally sophisticated design is the word for this open, contemporary, custom home which was designed for an active, empty nester couple nearing retirement. The simple, clean design complements their furniture and glass collection and allows visual and physical connections to the outdoors. The design separates public and private spaces, while the air conditioning system allows the residents to shut down unused zones in the house to significantly reduce energy consumption. Cantilevered roofs on the rear patio shade windows that capture southwestern views of the lake below and greatly enhance comfort for their outdoor living. A roof deck over the garage maximizes the outdoor spaces and increases site determined views.

This home is located in Austin, Texas
