**★★★★★ — suebornstein, Nov. 2015**

> It has been a delight to work with Jobe Corral Architects on several projects. They are talented, personable, organized and thoughtful. Prior to joining with Ada to create Jobe Corral, Camille Jobe designed an outstanding contemporary home for us in a traditional neighborhood. Since joining with Ada Corral, the firm has worked on 2 projects, One was a possible renovation of a very old house with lots of issues. They were honest and realistic about what that entailed. More recently, they have designed and are now supervising the construction of a ranch house. Camille Jobe and Ada Corral demonstrate the highest level of professionalism and skill.

**★★★★★ — agillespie7, Nov. 2015**

> Camille Jobe designed our home in Austin which is a complete WOW both inside and out and which was the standout on the AIA tour the year it was completed. This house is now 10 years old and has become even more beautiful and strong with this time.  Now we are building a ranch home designed by Camille and her new partner Ada Corral.  They take into account every detail of the needs and wants one has for a home.  They will take the time to know you and present you options.  They know the best builders, structural engineering, light people, designers and complementary landscape architects building a team that is lead by Camille and Ada.  They are mindful of costs and are very eco friendly.  They can visualize space both on the inside and outside.  They are accessible,  reasonable, highly ethical, kind good people.  I think their designs will be most famous one day.  It is an honor to work with these talented women.

**★★★★★ — Jim Thomas Bronze Studio, Inc., Nov. 2015**

> we provided custom architectural art for several of the architect's residential projects, mostly large entry doors, using the architect's drawings and supervision...excellent results and client satisfaction.

**★★★★★ — dusslingm, Nov. 2015**

> We have used Jobe Corral before they were Jobe Corral.  Ada starting working with us over three years ago before she joined with her partner in their business.
>
> The job they did for us is beyond words both in size and end results.
>
> We had a complete remodel of a 80's style home and you have to see the pictures to believe it.
>
> Pros:
> 1\. Oraganize
> 2\. Takes great pride in their work
> 3\. Innovative and comes with an opinion
>
> Cons:
> I really cannot think of any.  She has expensive taste due to her background but can balance into any budget as long as you are explicit.
>
> Bonus - we had a table made by Jobe's husband and was so impressed with the final work.  You can see his work at Mockingbird Domestics on South Lamar.

  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 14
  - Description: The design for a main house, guesthouse and fly tying studio is deeply connected to the land. Its protective form shields inhabitants from the Hill Country elements while expressing a strong sense of place. Two-foot thick rammed earth walls seem to spring from the land to form a protective outside layer of the C-shaped plan, an otherwise glassy and open structure. A lap pool, screened porch and extensive terrace reside in a courtyard facing the meadow below. Large, mature oak trees surround the…

  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: Overlooking downtown Austin, this project sits within view of the castle on the hill that was once the Texas Military Institute. The historic portion of the home is a modest, single wythe walled stone structure built in 1871 and was originally occupied by the headmaster of the Institute. As a private residence, many owners have adapted the simple building to better suit their needs. Our work is a renovation of the original historic structure and the breakfast room and three-story addition built…

  - Location: Not specified

  - Description: Barns are where you store the equipment needed to maintain your property, farm your land or feed your livestock. They are repair shops. They shelter from the elements. They are where the day begins and ends. This modern barn is the companion building to a small stone ranch house. Its operations- fishing, planting, harvesting and restoring the land to its original state- are modest in scale, but meaningful to the land’s occupants. The barn is organized around a breezeway that separates the car ga…

  - Description: This pair of tree houses connected by a steel and wood bridge is nestled into a grove of cedar trees in West Lake Hills. Built for a brother and sister, ages seven and ten, the two houses are elevated off the ground on steel columns that blend into the surrounding tree trunks. The skin of the trapezoidal floating boxes is untreated cedar. The open slats of the wood screen allow light to pass through and the boxes glow like lanterns in the night. Inside the tree houses are unexpected pops of brig…

  - Location: Austin, TX
  - Photos: 16
  - Description: Renovation project in west Austin. The original house had many walls at 45 degree angles, and very small windows. The main intent of the project was to open up the spaces to the beautiful backyard, and to clean up the 1980s floor plan. We wanted better connection between the spaces, and also to eliminate some of the dropped spaces to minimize the vertical changes throughout. The exterior transitions the modern interiors into the natural surroundings.

  - Location: Not specified
  - Photos: 6
  - Description: This East Austin house is both an exhibition space and a home to its curators. At the street front, the façade of the 100 year-old home is relatively unchanged and matches the character of the surrounding neighborhood. Inside, the intersection of old / new construction, public / private zones, art / life creates a layered experience that pushes the suburban form towards a more urban typology. When the gallery is not in use, the living room and dining room spill out into the public spaces. Large…

## Community Q&A

**Q: painted metal roof?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What product was used on the standing seem metal roof for the 'painted grip finish?'  I have been looking for a product that would do just that for our current project.

A: Hi there:

The finish is actually paint grip. It is a process where they pre-treat the metal by galvanizing it, then the surface is treated to receive paint. Many architects in our area use this unfinished metal because it looks a lot like zinc. We like it because it is not shiny and looks like a more natrual material.

**Q: love the modern esthetics! Who makes the simple sink with counter?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi there

The sink is Advance Tabco.
https://www.webstaurantstore.com/advance-tabco-fc-1-2424-18rl-one-compartment-stainless-steel-commercial-sink-with-two-drainboards-60/109C1242418.html
It is commercial restaurant supply.

**Q: Shiplap** *(in Photo Questions)*

Love the house! What kind of wood and paint did you use for shiplap? Thanks!

A: HI
I believe that was poplar. We just gapped a straight board. It is not milled to a lapping shape. Pre-painted before install to get in the gaps and then sprayed in place.

**Q: Water Catch Basin** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where did you get the rectangular metal? catch basins for the water feature?

A: Hi there:
This water feature was fabricated from our drawings. It was custom for the space.

**Q: What type of flooring is this?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: All of the stone is Texas limestone.  It is cut in 3 different ways.  Thanks for your interest in this fun project.

**Q: Bench** *(in Photo Questions)*

What are the vents on the lower part of the bench used for?

A: Thanks Jeff. We are getting ready to build one for our own family as well.  They are a lot of fun.
