How would you feel walking under this?

How can a built structure elevate and inspire our lived experience? By connecting us to the land where it lives while fully embracing and celebrating the scenic beauty all around it!

Incredible drone shots by Vintage Builders of a special project we’re working on here in Wimberley. Much more to come!

Thank you to family, friends, clients and a few stangers who have supported us and offered kind words and support in response to many of our recent project posts and reels. We are a small, family-run business so this work is very personal. It is also my literal life’s work (so far!) and your continued and past encouragement is quite humbling and greatly appreciated!

A few more photos from our recent Wimberley Farmhouse project:

I had the honor to design this gorgeous farmhouse-style home here in the Wimberley countryside for a sweet family. My favorite thing about this home is it’s understated, unassuming front elevation. The only hint at what lies beyond the facade is the expansive front door that gives glimpses of the breathtaking view to come. This house does not waste one square inch. It’s quite sensible that way. I always think of it as a “hard-working floor plan”. However it packs it’s punch with the views it reveals once inside. Every interior living space has a special perspective of the gorgeous valley below. Some of spaces are dramatic and others quaint but all have a peaceful easiness.
