Concrete, Wood and Metal Beams: Multi-Level Hilltop Residence in Austin
Perched atop one of the tallest point in the city and offering a bird?s eyeview of Austin, the Paramount Residence was designed by A Parallel Architecture keeping in mind the special requirements of the lot. The house has been partially sunk into the ground to meet with local construction norms even as sunken garages and lower level give the home much needed additional room. The lowest level has been built using concrete with an additional concrete plinth supporting the house. This gives it a reliable base with upper levels being crafted using wood, steel and glass. The residence feels modern with a touch of inimitable Austin charm all around!Contemporary hilltop house in Austin that is partially sunk into the groundEach level of the house offers something unique with the top most floor containing the master bedroom and other private spaces. It is the lowest level that holds the public areas and additional guest rooms while the mechanical and utility rooms are placed in an intermediate floor. There is no shortage of natural light inside the house with complete access to the rear yard from multiple levels. Additions like the live-edge dining table and sculptural pendant lights add even more class to a spacious Texas house that is exceptional and inviting.
