Inglewood
Austin, Texas
Architect: Mark Odom Studio
Photography: Casey Dunn
Drawing inspiration from midcentury design, this 2,400 square foot residence is characterized by abundant natural light and a layout centered around an entry sequence and a circulation path highlighting the courtyard. Existing trees played a vital role in the home's design, both for site preservation and to enhance the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Each area is bathed in light thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows. Inside, terraced zones define spaces and preserve sightlines. A continuous brick wall serves as a central circulation spine, underscoring the house's north-south axis and uniting each room.
The success of this project and the creation of a high-quality outcome stemmed from the seamless collaboration between client, builder, and architect, making the process a truly enjoyable one.
Clawson Duplexes

Located on a heavily wooded acre in South Austin, our studio developed four duplex lots, creating eight distinct residences accessible via a shared drive.
Each duplex was thoughtfully designed to integrate with existing trees and optimize views, accentuating unique site features for each unit. While maintaining a consistent architectural style and material palette, each unit possesses individual characteristics, fostering distinct identities across the development.
Privacy and expansive views are prioritized at the Clawson Duplexes, allowing uninterrupted enjoyment of both interior and exterior spaces.
Sustainability was integral to the design, incorporating sound insulation, natural cross-ventilation, and minimal disruption to the existing landscape and trees. This approach seamlessly blends the built environment with the natural surroundings. Furthermore, the landscaping is intended to cultivate a sense of community, providing opportunities for residents to connect and socialize.

Revitalizing a historic 1890s East Austin home into a distinctive space for Rosewood perfectly merges the past with the present. While honoring the home's historical integrity, the primary goal is to offer patrons a relaxed and enjoyable experience of Rosewood's craft.
Architecturally, the new addition serves as a modern yet understated backdrop to the original structure. This expansion accommodates the open kitchen and dining bar, central elements designed for all to appreciate.
Every part of the restaurant is carefully planned to fulfill the owners' vision. Outside, layered landscaping creates public and private areas for gathering.
