Bevel House
Nestled amidst the enchanting landscape of West Lake Hills, Texas, this home harmoniously blends with the natural topography and dense tree cover that defines this unique community.
The design reflects a commitment to site-specific excellence, with a linear layout that gracefully follows the contours of the slope. The defining feature, known as the "bevel," artfully guides the architecture, creating angled valley-side walls that frame breathtaking views of the rolling landscape and the cityscape beyond. This concept of the bevel is masterfully carried through the design, subtly echoed in meticulous details. The materials chosen—stucco, pre-finished metal siding, and a distinctive limestone with fossilized shells and ammonites—imbue the home with character and texture. Just moments from the vibrant heart of Austin, this residence is a tranquil retreat, a sanctuary for relaxation that seamlessly combines the serenity of nature with the functionality and comfort of modern living. It's a testament to the art of site-specific design and the pursuit of a truly harmonious home.
