The grandeur of the room is immediately apparent with the towering white fireplace, framed by intricate moldings, serving as a stunning focal point. Complementing the fireplace, built-in shelving niches exhibit understated sophistication while offering functional storage. The gentle curve of the contemporary sofas invites relaxation, perfectly juxtaposed with the bold, wrought-iron balusters of the overlooking balcony. The sun-drenched foyer, with its graceful archways and serene hues, provides a warm welcome, teasing glimpses of the rooms beyond. Accentuating the open-concept design, light wooden floors flow seamlessly throughout, grounding the space. Every element of this renovation whispers luxury, making it a true testament to modern meets classic design. #TimelessElegance #SerenityInDesign ?️?✨

A complete remodel of this entire home provided the flow and functionality our clients hoped for, within a space that befittingly showcased their favourite artwork and unique elements of personal self-expression. An artistic spirit is apparent throughout the home as complementary tones of blues, greys, and whites reflect and enhance the ethereal worlds depicted in their cherished art collection. Art is just one of the passions of this family, who also required a kitchen suited to their love of cooking. Vast counter space with high-end finishes and substantial storage in the form of elegant cabinetry frame the centrepiece – a beautifully anachronistic oven imported from France. With its pastel cerulean colour, the range draws the eye and evokes the homeowners’ artistic sensibilities. Similar pops of blue infuse the rest of the home with this cool worldliness, from the refinished bathroom with its walk-in closet, to the décor surrounding the stonework fireplace. This domestic composition is one which could surely fit in alongside our clients’ collection.

The duality of the structure is apparent in this model, with the existing bungalow preserved in the front, and a modern addition appended to the rear. Austin’s historic Hancock neighborhood–near the Balcones Fault, where east meets west and Blackland Prairie transforms into the Hill Country’s chalky limestone bluffs–is a region of liminality. Here street grids shift, and deep cuts in the earth give way to the city’s Shoal and Waller Creeks. Without knowing the underlying geology, you might guess the roads were jogging arbitrarily, but Constant House is well aware of its surroundings. In function as well as form, it’s a home that stands as a nexus between elements that typically divide.
