This small house, on a typical 50’x150′ lot in East Dallas was conceived of as way to facilitate a connection to the site. The client was an avid gardener and challenged us with problem of how to live on the entire site. This desire, coupled with a modest budget, necessitated a small footprint. At 1600 sf the house lives much larger than that due to it’s connection to the outdoors and the thoughtful use of natural light.
