Energy Efficient Infill Home: Austin, TX

Two-story home with stone and wood siding, solar panels, and native drought-tolerant landscaping
Built on an infill lot for a family of four, this home takes its scale and proportions from the 1950s houses around it rather than copying them outright. Clerestory windows pull daylight deep into the plan, deep overhangs keep the Texas sun off the walls, and a metal roof paired with advanced framing lowers long-term energy use. A separate garage and drought-resistant landscaping complete a straightforward, energy-conscious home built into its surroundings.
