Bon Aire Drive // Zero 3
The Bon Aire Residence in Old Lake Highlands is not the typical house. This home is the result of over eight years of collaboration between architect and homeowner scouring around Round Top, Texas, in search of one-of-a-kind treasures.
The home is designed for the lifestyle of the homeowners. It is firmly seeded in history, architectural artifacts and materials, bright and vibrant colors and textures, love of nature and plants, and vintage war memorabilia and muscle cars. Throughout the house are architectural artifacts — doors, windows, columns, corbels, shutters, and light fixtures — some used for their intended purposes and others repurposed to meet a new need. These artifacts, combined with contemporary construction techniques, make the Bon Aire Residence comfortable and modern, yet full of historical references and materials that make a perfect backdrop for the homeowners and their hobbies, collections, and passions.
