In keeping with the concept of recycling the barn's original materials, Franklin cut and refinished old beams for the new stairs. Coupled with white steel stringers and rails, the stairs, which are made up of oak, hickory and black walnut species, define the old-meets-new aesthetic of the home's design.

Newly constructed home located in the Zilker neighborhood of Austin. The existing bungalow on the property was deconstructed, with materials set aside for re-use in the new home. Goal of the project was to source exclusively from these existing materials, as well as materials salvaged from the homeowners' family ranch in West Texas. The remaining products and materials were sourced locally and made in the USA whenever possible, to lower the carbon footprint and support local manufacturers and artisans.

A few years after installation. This DIY project won an award from the area's HOA. A water thirsty lawn was replaced with drought tolerant plants. A concrete walkway from the driveway to the front door was removed in large pieces. The pieces, also known as urbanite, were used to create a low berm wall as well as two faux flagstone areas. The first provided a small patio while the second allowed for space to step out of the car. Permeable decomposed granite was used for a new entryway to the front door. The division of space creates a front yard that looks larger than it really is.
