Home away from home
Dallas attracts architects from across the country to design #ArchitecturallySignificantHomes In the Trinity River Forest, architect Mark Finlay from Connecticut designed this clubhouse for the Trinity Forest Golf Club, the new home of the Byron Nelson Golf Tournament and SMU varsity golf team. This sunlit clubhouse overlooking the forest and golf course designed by Ben Crenshaw becomes a home away from home. Architect Mark Finlay designed this space with the same characteristics of a home that makes us happy. #TrinityForestGolfClub #MPFArchitects #ByronNelson #Architect #Architecture #HomesThatMakeUsHappy #SMU #SMUGolf #Clubhouse #GolfClub #GolfCourse #BenCrenshaw #Golf #Landscape #InteriorDesign #Modern #Contemporary #PathToTrinityGroves #Park #Dallas #CountryClub #TrinityRiver
Arch Swank threw us a curve
Architect Arch Swank, one of the great modern architects in the 1930s-1950s, designed this midcentury modern home on a private drive to #WhiteRockLake. A floating wall always accentuates the modernity of a home. Even more fabulous is the curved floating wall that Arch Swank created for this modern home. Interior designer Paul Draper respected the original architecture with his #renovation #design and contractor Eddie Perez executed it beautifully. This architectural project is a triumph for #historic #preservation for which #Dallas is known. #ArchSwank #AIA #Architect #Architecture #ArchitecturallySignificant #ArchitecturallySignificantModernHomes #Contemporary #Design #HomesThatMakeUsHappy #MidCenturyModern #Modern #ModernArchitecture #ModernHome #ModernDesign #InteriorDesign #FloatingWall #PathToTrinityGroves #SantaFeTrail #EastDallas #Neighborhood #Lakewood
Architectural Layers Illuminate a City
From the rooftop of a turn-of-the-century warehouse, now residence, one can see the architectural evolution of the city, patterns of development and a slice of history. Prominent architects from across the country designed architecturally significant buildings in each decade from the end of the 19th century to the second decade of the 21st century that includes buildings designed by architects who received the Pritzker prize.

Frank Welch design makes us happy
Architect Frank Welch designed modern and Texas Modern homes that were vibrant, filled with sunlight, and perfectly sited as this home in my favorite neighborhood, Turtle Creek Park, across from Turtle Creek and backed up to to the Katy Trail that leads to Trinity Groves.

Surprise of a city lot
Some city modern homes blend into the cityscape or the landscape from the street and then as one moves through the house comes the surprise!

Dynamic Settings Win Out
It is not how much land a home is on but what it is next to. Even more important than four acres of land is that the home is on a point with 270° views of the 1,015-acre White Rock Lake, sail boat races, rowers, kayakers, cyclists, runners.
