Equestrian Estate:  Design Architect and Construction Manager of a European-style, lakeside equestrian estate in Austin, Texas, featuring a substantial stone house, a stables complex and extensive hard landscaping on the 30-acre site. Resolution of sustainability issues resulted in the implementation of deep-well geothermal air conditioning, the use of local natural materials and high-efficiency insulation throughout.

 

Historic Buildings and Conservation:  Commissions completed in England and France involving renovations of ancient stone buildings, from medieval homes to rural barns and a water mill. My design intention has always been to respect the original building's vernacular context while creating modern alternatives that re-energize them.
