Great Homes from the February Issue
From an affordable modern home situated on a sloped creekside site in Atlanta to a renovated 1960s residence in Austin, click through to see seven of the homes recently featured in our February issue.
The residence is set back a few feet from the site’s edge, allowing more light to flood into neighbors’ windows and leaving space for trees. “The idea was to make a strong gesture to incorporate ideas
of openness,” Lynch explains. “It’s not just a box if you look at it closely. It’s a series of planes that fit together."
Originally designed by locally renowned architect Arthur Dallas Stenger, this 1960s home featured an unusual awning that was maintained during a 21st-century upgrade by architects Rick and Cindy Black. The architects partially reconfigured the interior layout, updated the kitchen, and added new doors to the porch, all the while making sure the adjustments to the house honored its midcentury provenance while still avoiding creating a time capsule.
