Designed by Jay Corder Architect, this house is a blend of casual lakeside living with a sophisticated design aesthetic, located in the city of Horseshoe Bay, Texas. This spectacular lake house was designed on its site to maximizeย the views towards the lake from almost every angle.

Rough materials wereย reinvented and craftedย to blend these notions. Siteย slope was a major factorย in the overall designย and site plan of the house. A series of terracedย living spaces was carefullyย fitted into the landscapeย to react both to the houseย and to the terrain.

Itย was important not to block any of the lake view but still ย minimally impact the steep site. The main house opens up to the terraced outdoor living areas and the series of porches adjacent. A bridge connects the house and upper lawn areas to the ย boathouse in both a dramatic and functional response.
