A Modern Family Ranch, Texas, United States, by Lake|Flato Architects

Lake|Flato Architects

The project includes a main house, guest retreat, pool house, and tennis pavilion that sit on 10 acres of rolling hills. While the location makes way for a typical ranch-style house, this project features a combination of modern and vintage furnishings, clean lines, and a truly stellar contemporary art collection. Considering its surroundings, the house was built with massive blocks of Texas Lueders limestone that they mixed with steel and glass walls. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the green landscape and fill the house with something natural – sunlight.

Besides the “great room”, the main house has an eat-in kitchen, six bedrooms, and a master suite. The main living area has double-height ceilings making the open living and dining room feel quite grand. Each bedroom has a completely different vibe making it really hard to choose a favourite. The master suite is located right off the great room and has perforated suede wall panels giving the room a lush feel. In the guesthouse, there’s two bedrooms, an indoor/outdoor living room, and a wine cellar.

This is just breath taking. What an incredible ranch you have there! From what I have read through your blog, the plan is to create a large family ranch. Since the project includes a main house, guest retreat, a pool house and other amenities, I believe that it would be a splendid. Personally, I would want to live there for the entirety of my remaining life with my family. I believe that the architect deserves great praise for this incredible ranch.
