This client’s love for horticulture and plants drove the ideas behind the house as each entry to the house snugs up against the broad collection of plants. Prior to the remodel, the floor plan was congested with doors and hallways. Now with an open concept, more natural light and better flow, the space has heightens family interact… - [Lost Creek Modern Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lost-creek-modern-residence-pj-vj~819391) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - Description: After many years of enjoying their house and raising their children, these empty nesters wanted to modernize and expand their 1980’s home in Lost Creek. With their love for food and cooking in mind, we expanded the kitchen so they could accommodate family and friends during dinner parties and holiday events. We modernized almost every surface in the home, appointed the front entrance with a beautiful pivot door and reorganizing walls and windows. This project brings the jaw dropping hill country… - [Screened Living](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/screened-living-pj-vj~3054) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - Description: Featured on the 2011 Outdoor Living Tour Clients living in a 1950's rambler in central Austin wanted to add square footage while maintaining a small carbon footprint. To take advantage of their large backyard, they opted for a detached screened porch and called it "The Screened Living Room." The 500 square foot structure is nestled between several mature pecan trees and has a perpendicular relationship to the main house. We used simple materials like trusses made of Timberstrand, concrete floori… - [Brentwood Addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/brentwood-addition-pj-vj~2906) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - Description: Featured on Apartment Therapy This 1952 Brentwood home sits on a third acre corner lot and is the architect’s personal residence. Although we loved the area, the home was dark inside and the floor plan did not work for our family. We wanted to strike a good balance between urban living with a need for privacy and appreciation for the outdoors. The first thing that attracted us to this house were three mature Live Oaks surrounding the home so we designed around them, hoping to capture canopy view… - [Culver Addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/culver-addition-pj-vj~819401) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - Description: Featured on Apartment Therapy This client had an eye for design and appreciated a modern look next to vintage finds. Cass was hired to design and build a master suite and home office onto the existing 1950’s home. Cass and the client collaborated on almost every detail of this project and the result blends in well with the existing home’s structure yet clearly sets itself apart as a new, contemporary area. The master suite's bright windows, semi-vaulted ceiling, open closet concept and streamlin… - [South Center](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/south-center-pj-vj~819396) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: Featured on the 2013 Modern Homes Tour This was an urban infill project in a south Austin enclave that we designed for a speculative builder and investor. The project involved a feasibility study and reworking the existing lot to accommodate a single-family home as well as a duplex. The structures were carefully built around a 200 year old Live Oak. Each residence was strategically positioned to offer privacy from the others while still being part of this small community. The floor plans for eac… - [Gallery House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/gallery-house-pj-vj~819382) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - Description: What started out as a client request for more wall space for artwork turned into a delightful collaboration and reworking of the existing house. The clients and architect shared a passion for art and design and worked together to transform the house into a gallery space for their art collection. Sculptural elements were added at the stair well and fireplace. Finishes were finessed throughout the project leading to a tranquil master bedroom suite with light, airy finishes and thick Pine floors.
