This project had a hard road to hoe with a 20th century masterpiece across the yard from it in Kahn’s original Kimbell Art Museum (which was able to capture and deal with the Texas light with a grand total of 4 pieces). I think you would have thought to polish your shoes before posting a photo of them on your well-read blog!

It’s a pretty practical consideration but since I’ve been doing my own yard work since I was 7 years old, it’s something I think about. This captures all the spirit and wonder we were trying to create in our Bunkie project, but does so without the price tag we ended up with. Vegetables or Dessert? Your Email Address.

So without any more prattling on by yours truly, let’s get to what this house actually looks like ~ This house sits on the extreme point of a circular street, which means that all but one side appears as a front yard. Robert Rockefeller Bob, my first post on your blog. I ama big fan of your blog and your work.

I’m not sure I would have made this observation had I not started writing this blog and posting my sketches for others to view. I use a 12″ wide x 50 yard long roll of trace paper , and an architectural scale (which is used to measure out dimensions as I sketch and I use the edge to tear the trace paper off the roll).

I keep a fairly organic backyard and having a beehive seemed to be an indication to me that I have ecological balance in my yard [yay me!] But after a short while, there were A LOT of bees and nobody liked going out in the yard anymore … it’s seemed reckless. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email.'

For the view able, we are standing in the side yard looking at the master bedroom wing directly in front. We ended up changing it out to be a Ipe wood cantilevered deck – which I think was aesthetically the right decision because the wood softens the transition between the built house and the yard.
