Bunny Run: Privacy and Picturesque Views Rolled Into One

Just the right amount of modern – that is how one would define this smart contemporary residence in Austin, Texas, nestled on a lot neatly tucked between the Colorado River and Highway 360. Dubbed as the Bunny Run Residence, the house acts as a wonderful interface between the lovely landscape outside and the cozy comfort of the interior, as it highlights the indoor-outdoor interplay. Large glass doors and windows open up the living area on the lower level and master bedroom to the view outside, even as the smart wooden deck and negative-edge pool extend the living space beyond the white walls.

Designed by Alterstudio Architecture and BF Homes, the residence features a delicate balance between privacy and unabated views that has been carefully constructed to make the most of the home’s unique lot. A large north block and a more modest south wing of the home are brought together by a glass area that brings in natural light and ventilation. A fascinating entry court with a ‘wall’ of large live oak trees adds another unique dimension to the cheerful ambiance of the house, allowing you to escape the rush of the fast-paced urban lifestyle.
