Located on a spacious corner lot in Austin’s Zilker neighborhood, Garner Estate began with two key elements: a majestic live oak tree and a 1940 stone cottage. Rick and Cindy Black Architects drew on Texas vernacular influences to shape the new main house. Gabled roofs, arches, and inviting porches create a friendly, classic look that fits easily into the existing streetscape.
The Austin Minimalist Backhouse is a stunning example of collaboration and modern design. Created by Moontower for a master electrician at Modern Electric, this one-bedroom home in East Austin prioritizes clean lines, functionality, and thoughtful site planning. The result is a space that maximizes privacy and development potential in a rapidly growing neighborhood.
Originally built in 1950, prominent Austin architect Howard R. Barr, FAIA, designed this mid-century modern gem in the heart of Austin’s Highland Park neighborhood in the late 1940’s.
