Description
WITH UNPARALLED VIEWS OF THE EVERY-CHANGING AUSTIN SKYLINE, THE PEMBERTON PLACE RESIDENCE IS NESTLED BETWEEN LARGE HERITAGE OAK TREES ON A RARE, ONE-ACRE LOT IN WEST AUSTIN. PUSHED BACK FROM THE STREET ALONG THE EDGE OF A BLUFF, THIS MODERN TREEHOUSE SLIPS THRU THE TREES TO CAPTURE SPECTACULAR VIEWS ACROSS PEASE DISTRICT PARK TO THE STATE CAPITOL AND DOWNTOWN.
THE EXTERIOR FEATURES A MINIMAL PALETTE OF CUT LIMESTONE, WESTERN RED CEDAR AND GLASS. STONE DETAILING WITH DEEP RAKED HORIZONTAL JOINTS ALONG WITH BUTTED VERTICAL JOINTS AND DEEP ROOF OVERHANGS GIVE THE HOUSE A STRONG HORIZONTAL APPEARANCE WHILE VISUALLY COMPRESSING THE SCALE OF THE STRUCTURE.
A FLOATING IPE BRIDGE LEADS GUESTS TO THE FRONT ENTRY: A DOUBLE HEIGHT GLASS BOX THAT SERVES AS A VISUAL CONNECTOR BETWEEN THE ONE AND TWO STORY VOLUME CHANGE. THE LARGE STEEL AND GLASS PIVOT DOOR OPENS TO AN ORNAMENTAL STAIRCASE OF STEEL AND WHITE OAK, WHICH PROVIDES A GLIMPSE OF THE MINIMAL YET COMPLEX INTERIOR DETAILING. RIFT SAWN WHITE OAK FLOORS AND CABINETS PAIRED WITH VENETIAN PLASTER WALLS EFFORTLESSLY TRANISITION INTO FLOOR-TO-CEILING STEEL WINDOWS THROUGHOUT, CONNECTING BOTH THE GRAND AND INTIMATE SPACES.
THE VIEWS ARE SLOWLY REVEALED AS GUESTS MAKE THEIR WAY THROUGH FORMAL SPACES CULMINATING IN A ONE-OF-A-KIND VIEW FROM THE CASUAL SITTING ROOM AT THE FAR EDGE OF THE HOUSE. LARGE IPE DECKS THAT FLOAT OUT AMONGST THE TREES ALONG WITH EXPANSIVE GLAZING PROVIDE A SENSE OF CONNECTION FROM INTERIOR TO EXTERIOR.
TO MAXIMIZE ENERGY EFFICIENCY, THE PEMBERTON PLACE RESIDENCE UTILIZES GEOTHERMAL HVAC SYSTEMS, A PHOTOVOLTAIC ARRAY, CELLULAR FOAM INSULATION AND TANKLESS WATER HEATERS.
