To the west of the Lake View Residence, the land falls away into the Bright Leaf Preserve, offering long views up the Colorado River. This setting—combined with a desire to live casually among a grove of ancient trees—shaped the vision for a home that balances openness with quiet restraint.
The approach begins beneath the canopy of mature Live Oaks, where an intimate entry path weaves through limestone, vertical cypress planks, and dense plantings. Views are introduced gradually, with glimpses framed deliberately to build anticipation and guide the visitor’s experience.
An unmitigated ceiling plane provides a canvas for reflected daylight while a delicate window wall accentuated by monolithic corner glazing opens the home to its outdoor surroundings. The interior unfolds with a palette of wood, stone, and purpose-built cabinetry to add warmth and create moments of stillness within the larger spatial rhythm that anchor the home against the pull of the grand exterior vistas.
