westoak:

The Westoak Residence is a modern home that blends inspiration from Luis Barragán’s vivid colors and the boldness of traditional Japanese architecture. Expansive windows invite abundant natural light, connecting the indoors and outdoors. At the heart of the backyard, a pool nestles into the home’s L-shaped layout, framed by terracotta colored stucco and tigerwood.

A recurring half-arch motif anchors the design, appearing in cabinetry, ceilings, walls, and custom details, lending the home a playful yet cohesive identity. The kitchen combines natural and rich materials with walnut cabinets and an eye-catching green quartzite countertop. A sculptural staircase of steel and white oak marks the transition to the private areas of the house, offering a moment of elegance and intrigue. Throughout the project, a new line of tile by Rock Paper Build adds a layer of artistry and uniqueness.

This home will be appearing on the Austin Modern Home Tour on February 22nd, 2025. For tickets or more information, click this link.
