I spent several months based out of Austin, TX developing drawings for

a variety of different residential projects on a contract basis. Each home

had a unique style and goal. This period in my career has greatly en-

riched my appreciation for residential projects and furthered my com-

mitment to pursuing architecture as a career. The drawings shown be-

low were created with minimal oversight. During the period when

these were drawn, I was running my own design & drafting business.

The floorplans and elevations were drawn based on references provid-

ed by the client.

Both the home featured here, and the one on the previous page, are

for clients who intend to build in the San Antonio area. Both projects

are still early on in the design phase.

Designed a community greenhouse

made from repurposed shipping con-

tainer shells and ETFE paneling. Green-

house would be available to all residents

of the development.

Construction plans were developed in

CAD.

Model developed in Revit (for

artistic renderings).

Close correspondence and design work

with client. Management of his wants

versus the reality of his budget and the

constraints of construction.

Reworked island to increase func-

mine design solutions for the

client’s unique cabinetry concept.

throughout the house.

Client had a grand idea that he

Previous designer had neglected to

consider local setback requirements

in designing patio.

A full redesign was performed, but

all essential design features were

able to remain. Reconfiguration was

done in collaboration with client.

Exterior spaces were developed at

multiple levels to appeal to a

modern buyer.

With over two dozen sheets drawn

by myself, this project represents one

of my biggest undertakings.
