Lake Austin Residence

The idea of water

Location Austin, TX
Home Size 8,000 sf
Completed 2013

Notwithstanding a relaxed and casual daily life, these property owners are avid entertainers, regularly hosting a variety of private events and public fundraisers. Inspired by luxury resorts worldwide, our goal was to exceed the needs of our sophisticated and well-traveled clients.

The house is comprised of a procession of pavilions distributed along the site, enclosing and shaping an array of spaces, both public and private. The interplay among the indoor and outdoor spaces and the integration of water elements throughout gives this home the feeling of a remote retreat. The covered pool pavilion and sandy private beach frame a view of Lake Austin beyond. Hospitality-inspired amenities including a guest bungalow, fire court, secret garden, and four-slip boat house complete the experience.
