Lake Travis Retreat by Dick Clark Architecture
Prévu comme une maison qui logera une famille entière mais incluant aussi l’évolution de celle ci, la maison fut conçut avec un procédé inhabituel. La famille, y compris leurs enfants, on tout activement participée aux réunions de design avec l’équipe de Dick Clark Architecture. Des décisions critiques ont été examinées de près parmi le groupe et décidées par vote, avec pour chaque membre de la famille une part égale.
Le résultat est une maison qui reste vraie, comme un lieu de vie où la famille et des amis peuvent passer leur temps libre, jouissant de la beauté du cadre parmi les lacs de Travis au Texas.
Envisioned as a home that will accommodate a family as it grows, and play host to friends and extended family, the ideas that inform the design of the house were developed through an unusual process — The family, including their children, all actively participated in design meetings with the team from Dick Clark Architecture. Critical decisions were vetted among the group and decided by vote, with each family member getting equal say. The result is a house that stays true to its purpose as a place where family and friends can spend precious free time enjoying one another and the beauty of the Highland Lakes setting.
In processing the program objectives of the family, Dick Clark Architecture made a number of suggestions: one was to organize the plan of the house so that primary views focus on interior courtyards or the lake itself. This heightens the “retreat” quality of the house, and ensure that even as development continues in the vicinity of the house, the quality of views will be maintained.
