Henri II

This project involved a collaboration between an artist and an architectural historian who wanted to build a new residence on their compact lot in Central Austin. The new structure features concrete masonry unit walls with exposed building systems and serves primarily as a dramatic two-story library to house the owner’s extensive art and architectural book collection.
