On the outskirts of Austin, Texas, architect Thomas Bercy built the Edgeland House for lawyer and writer, Chris Brown. The home is topped by a living roof to help it blend smoothly into the landscape, which was conceptualized by John Hart Asher of the Ecosystem Design Group at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Birds, butterflies, bees, dragonflies, hawks, snakes, lizards, and frogs all treat the house like just another grassy knoll; this nature show is visible through the glass-and-steel walls that look toward the rift between the structure’s distinct halves.
