Northwest Hills House
Austin, Texas
A split-level 1970s ranch house was transformed into a fresh, welcoming home for two New York City transplants. The kitchen was redesigned with bespoke cabinetry and professional appliances. A band of warm mahogany weaves across the verdant green and crisp white cabinetry, creating functional open storage for dishes, books, spices and the couple’s collection of miniature Japanese figurines. In the living room, a bulky wall-to-wall fireplace and storage unit was replaced with an understated fireplace surround of black unglazed porcelain tiles - the same material the clients witnessed daily in the NYC subway system murals. The clients’ growing collection of contemporary art feels at home with a mix of vintage and new furnishings sourced by us.
