365 MODERN LIVING RECEPTIONS

Modern Living Every Day of the Year

Highland Park Residence October 25, 2022

6 to 8 pm (come and go)

Highland Park Residence

The Highland Park residence creates an extraordinary environment with building and landscape intertwined so its owners live in new and unexpected ways. An unadulterated stone bar hovers precariously at the building line. A separate gallery provides a carefully calibrated setting for a significant rotating collection of art. Curved glass panels and enormous retracting glass doors encourage the transition through the building into the landscape. Raw and refined finishes are paired ubiquitously with mill finished steel abutting carefully composed Indiana limestone panels, and custom, hand-made tile & glazed volcanic stones. The building provides both a tangible material presence and an abstract ground against which the vicissitudes of nature, art and social occasion are experienced.

Farquhar Residence

This modern residence located on a lake in the Devonshire neighborhood maximizes views while nestling into the landscape. The home engages the natural environment and creates a dialog with an enormous heritage live oak in the front and the lake to the rear. While the home is three stories, it is recessed into the landscape to create a dynamic connection along the lakeside. The residence features large porches for entertaining. Clad in a fossil filled Texas limestone, Douglas fir siding, and a copper roof, the material palette reflects the natural tones of the landscape. The project team designed the architecture and interiors with a rich but subdued palette, using the natural hues from the limestone and white oak floors to complement the owner’s art collection. Furniture was selected for its clean lines and comfort; united in tone but varied in texture.
