Incluida en el American Institute of Architects 2008 Austin Homes Tour

The project consists of 2 residences in one urban SF-3 lot, utilizing the City of Austin Infill-Design tools such as a main house with secondary apartment. The project creatively complies with all aspects of the 'McMansion' regulations, while still allowing for quality, spacious living.

The Riverview Condominiums are a smaller scale version of the high-rise condominiums downtown, while offering more opportunities for outdoor living spaces with large covered- and screened-porches, outdoor grilling, roof-decks, herb gardens and courtyards with large, mature pecan trees – treats that one doesn’t get when living in a high-rise condo.

Such amenities were carefully considered in the design, paying close attention to living patterns and their expressions through the architecture. The placement and size of porches as well as the interaction between the outside and the inside were carefully planned, by employing:

- moveable glass walls that seamlessly separate, yet integrate, the outdoors and the indoors.
- a kitchen as the center of all activities, suggesting a living pattern that revolves around cooking and entertaining.
- expansive, raised patios, allowing for tree-top and city views.
