Here in the Hill Country on a gently sloping site with panoramic views, the award-winning local architects are building a pair of homes with the finely-tuned aesthetic that has earned them international acclaim. The two houses speak the same design language, rotationally symmetrical in plan, yet their responsiveness to topography gives each its own specificity. The scale and proportions are formal and Modern, yet the courtyard orientation and hand-wrought materials evoke ancient cultures. Outside, a smooth trowel stucco base is juxtaposed against perforated Corten steel panels on the upper level, creating a play of thickness, texture and color, giving each home the appearance of sculpture in the landscape. A series of floor-to-ceiling windows and doors brings nature to the center of the homes, and roof decks encourage elevated outdoor living. Inside, the open plan, white oak floors, honed Lueders limestone, and Brazilian hard wood give the homes a distinctly informal and very livable feel. European cabinets, stainless steel appliances and polished chrome hardware and fixtures throughout lend an air of elegance to the entire composition.

The manager has listed the unit size as 3020 square feet.
