This four-bedroom new build in South Austin was designed with soaring living spaces, a monochromatic color palette, and a focus on indoor/outdoor spaces. Tornbjerg is formerly of Bercy Chen, whose cutting edge homes update the primarily midcentury housing stock of Austin.
Architect Erin Pellegrino helps the Wisniewski brothers preserve the legacy of their father’s workshop on Martha’s Vineyard.
To extend the living room view, the architects used corner glass, eliminating the need to use a jamb or corner post that would have interrupted the landscape.
The oak cabinet in the living room was another secondhand find. “It had the exact measurements of the wall,” says Annemie. “We just needed to hang it.” The throw blanket is from La Femme Garniture while the pillows and pendants are custom.
Glass sliding doors separate the wet kitchen from the other spaces, limiting cooking smells while still maintaining a visual connection.
