Residence 1446 by Miró Rivera Architects

Miró Rivera Architects have designed a new house in Austin, Texas, that features exterior walls of flat seam copper and Lueders roughback limestone, and a roof made from standing seam copper.

The layout of the house wraps around a landscaped garden and lawn area at the front of the home. The lawn is surrounded by a border of smooth pebbles, and large glass walls provide a glimpse inside.

The home has a custom front pivot door that’s clad in copper. It opens to a foyer with honed limestone flooring, that’s also featured throughout the home.

The social areas of the home have an open floor plan, with the living room and dining room sharing the same space. A square dining table perfectly lines up with the fireplace in the living room.

In the living room, an eye-catching fireplace has been created using weathering steel and Old Dominion soapstone.

At the rear of the home, the large glass walls look out onto a covered patio that leads down to the backyard.

At the end of the patio is a smaller area that’s been designed as an outdoor lounge filled with seating. Windows allow for a view of the kitchen inside.

In the kitchen, custom designed wood kitchen cabinetry is topped with a marble countertop.

Tucked away into a small alcove is a wine/bar area with storage and wine fridges.

Here’s a look at the powder bathroom. Lighting has been used to highlight the artwork on the wall, and on either side of the mirror, soft lighting creates an ambient glow.
