named the ‘garden street residence’, this home in austin, texas was designed by pavonetti architecture. a personal project of the architect, the eco-friendly dwelling has been approached with a contemporary aesthetic on the inside, while retaining a vernacular form that references texas’ barn and stable structures.

the light-filled, two storey home is airy and evokes an industrial essence. cedar sliding, exposed wood and a steel frame complements the bare concrete floors. large, steel-frame windows add to the hand wrought theme, while an eclectic selection of details and furnishings adorn the interior — cultivating a homely and comfortable ambiance.
