Texas House

Walker County, Texas
2,190 square feet 
2013

This house was designed as a weekend retreat for a professional couple in Houston, Texas.  The walls were designed as icf's with texas limestone cladding.  Corrugated metal roofing, shutters and exposed steel porch structure accentuate the agrarian nature of the site.  The roof overhangs the large expanses of glass to prevent overheating of the spaces and is clad in reclaimed lumber to add warmth to the spaces.
