The original design did not harness views to the lake and Mount Bonnell, nor did it respect the ecological sensitivity of its site. The challenge was to develop a sensitive and inventive result out of a pre-existing condition. Through the use of glass, steel, detailing and light the home has been adaptively reinvented. Reflection, translucency, color and geometry conspire to bring natural light deep into the house. A new solarium, pool, and vegetative roof are tuned to interact with the natural context. Exterior materials and refined detailing of the roof structure give the volume clean lines and a bold presence, while abstracting the form of the original dormers and gable roof.

On the aesthetic level it provides a peaceful transition between the landscape and the architecture.<br /> <br /> The selection of plants in the garden are primarily plants native to the central texas region. This minimizes the usage of water, and follows principles of xeriscaping. The garden is planned around existing mature trees and shrubs with various ground covers and perennials. The intention was to preserve the characteristic of the site as much as possible and retain the essence of a landscape native to the edwards plateau in the hill country.<br /> <br /> BVS residence, Austin Texas, USA<br /> Bercy Chen Studio LP<br /> <a href="http://www.bcarc.com" rel="nofollow">www.bcarc.com</a></p> Bercy Chen Studio LP house lake home architecture modern sanantonio austin landscape texas contemporary modernism houston livingroom minimalism luxury lakebuchanan modernarchitecture lakehouse modernist sustainability poolroom lakeaustin conceptualart greenbuilding moderndesign reflectingpond modernhome modernlandscape lakehome lakeaustinhouse modernaustin sustainablehome texasmodernhome volentelakehouse austinmodernhome modernlakehouse luxurylakehouse texasmodernhouse waterfrontluxuryhome houstonmodern sanantoniomodern houstonmodernarchitect texasluxurymodernhome modernarchitectaustin hillcountrymodern http://www.flickr.com/photos/bercychenstudio/4587168673/ <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/bercychenstudio/">Bercy Chen Studio LP</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/bercychenstudio/4587168673/" title="Dallas Revision Self Sustaining Downtown Block"><img src="http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4007/4587168673_987d341a67_m.jpg" width="240" height="154" alt="Dallas Revision Self Sustaining Downtown Block" /></a></p> <p><br /> <a href="http://www.bcarc.com" rel="nofollow">www.bcarc.com</a><br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/29/garden/29attics.html" rel="nofollow">www.nytimes.com/2007/03/29/garden/29attics.html</a><br /> <br /> Bercy Chen Studio LP<br /> Austin, Los Angeles, Taipei<br /> <br /> <br /> Architectural Record Design Vanguard 2006<br /> <br /> archrecord.construction.com/designVanguard/DesignVanguard...<br /> <br /> Architectural League of New York<br /> Emerging Voices 2006<br /> <br /> &quot;5 To Watch&quot;<br /> FORM magazine, Los Angeles 2009<br /> <br /> 40 Under 40 Award<br /> European Center For Architecture Art Design &amp;

The original design did not harness views to the lake and Mount Bonnell, nor did it respect the ecological sensitivity of its site. The challenge was to develop a sensitive and inventive result out of a pre-existing condition. Through the use of glass, steel, detailing and light the home has been adaptively reinvented. Reflection, translucency, color and geometry conspire to bring natural light deep into the house. A new solarium, pool, and vegetative roof are tuned to interact with the natural context. Exterior materials and refined detailing of the roof structure give the volume clean lines and a bold presence, while abstracting the form of the original dormers and gable roof.

The original design did not harness views to the lake and Mount Bonnell, nor did it respect the ecological sensitivity of its site. The challenge was to develop a sensitive and inventive result out of a pre-existing condition. Through the use of glass, steel, detailing and light the home has been adaptively reinvented. Reflection, translucency, color and geometry conspire to bring natural light deep into the house. A new solarium, pool, and vegetative roof are tuned to interact with the natural context. Exterior materials and refined detailing of the roof structure give the volume clean lines and a bold presence, while abstracting the form of the original dormers and gable roof. Further connecting the home to its site, the roof begins to dissolve where a glass clad chimney and slatted wood screen stand in relief against the sky.<br /> <br /> Bercy Chen Studio LP<br /> <a href="http://www.bcarc.com" rel="nofollow">www.bcarc.com</a><br /> <br /> Selected for 2010 AIA Homes Tour<br /> <a href="http://www.aiaaustin.org/event/2010-aia-austin-homes-tour" rel="nofollow">www.aiaaustin.org/event/2010-aia-austin-homes-tour</a></p> Wed, 26 Nov 2008 13:48:15 -0800 2008-11-26T15:48:15-08:00 nobody@flickr.com (Bercy Chen Studio LP) tag:flickr.com,2004:/photo/3061445257 Austin Lake House/ Lake Front Garden <p><a href="http://peninsula.bcarc.com/" rel="nofollow">peninsula.bcarc.com/</a><br /> <br /> The project begins with a 1980’s home-builder house fronting on lake austin.
