This extensive remodel overlooking Lake Austin is a paean to the powerful art it enfolds. Rigorous editing of every distracting, inconsequential element of the original house was critical. So too was the insertion of new complementary components that provide artful ways to move through both interior and exterior rooms. The collection of modern art is arresting. Ranging from a Turrell hologram to a pair of Agnes Martins, the art is framed by the architecture and lighting so that it is experienced in a choreographed, curated way that encourages wandering and an intimate connection to each piece. The mood is set in the entry courtyard. A floating walkway curves down and around a brilliant spiraling blue Clement sculpture. It pauses once, at a moment of surprise, when the first view through the house is filled with the blue water of the lake beyond. Inside, the saturated color of many of the pieces of art are balanced by an absence of other visual clutter in the color palette, furniture, and architecture. A new interior plaster, steel, and bronze stair carves through a space occupied by two small Clement sculptures in niches, a McKay Otto sculpture on a landing and a glass cylinder elevator. This is a very specific place, designed for specific art and for a collector who has a close relationship with each piece.

Keeping the classic design of the 1940's vintage seaside cottage, the radiators were cleaned up, a brand new stunning gold chandelier was hung, and the Restoration Hardware dining table was perfectly places in the center. The windows overlook the Chesapeake Bay.

Walls of windows, IPE wood, and natural stone give this home overlooking the 12th fairway an organic soft contemporary feel. With stunning views from each room I focused on bringing the outdoors in as much as possible. I kept the furnishing more streamlined so they would not compete with the architecture but compliment it instead.

The dining area looks in the the sunken wine room showcasing their grand collection of wines. Photographer: Charles Lauersdorf, Realty Pro Shots

We recovered the beautiful pine flooring in the upper level of this historic cottage. Look at that curved door overlooking the Chesapeake Bay with marble trim.

The deck overlooking this body of water begs for a clear view, and that's exactly what this homeowner gave it by choosing a cable railing! Not only do the clean, minimal lines keep the view open, but the natural aluminum frame mirrors the water in how it absorbs and reflects the surrounding light and colors.

Imagine the vacation resort atmosphere of this lake community. Even the lower level has a million-dollar view. Enjoy sunning yourself in the backyard enjoying cold drinks overlooking the premier lake in North Idaho.
