Description: Spectacular custom contemporary designed by Taft Architects. The home is a splayed plan that follows the divergent geometry of the site's side lot lines. A long bar parallels the south property line; a more compact block is aligned with the north property line, resulting in an L-plan oriented to the north-facing backyard. The house is closed on its street front, where the two wings frame a recessed entrance court beneath a fractured gable formed by each wing's shed roof. The spatial surprise is the extraordinary backyard, which slopes down to a branch of the White Oak bayou. A north-facing, aluminum glass curtain wall opens the interiors to this secret garden, as do broad covered terraces.
