Hill Country Retreat

Lead ArchitectBrian Korte FAIA
Design TeamBrian Korte, Paul Clayton, Bradley Wilson (former)

Perched above tall grasses and overlooking a pond with old growth cedar and oak trees the Retreat is designed as a place to connect with nature. Siting on 40-acres the retreat was inspired by the owner’s travels and African safari lodges. An exoskeleton of salvaged oil field drill stem pipe pairs with Ipe decking, copper insect screens, and a laced canvas roof with long expansive eves to keep guests shaded from the Texas sun and protected from insects. An Airstream trailer is registered into the decking, providing modern air-conditioned glamping amenities to the open-air screened structure.
