612 W Johanna

Alright color lovers, don't get scared by all this white. Bright white happens to be the absolute perfect canvas for all sorts of color and pattern (see the Miller House for reference). While this place may be a bit hard to swallow for those without a bit of imagination, to me it's masterpiece just waiting to be finished.

It's hard not to love a house as well decorated as this one. Besides being full of MCM goodness (Womb chair, Eames LCM and hang it all, Nelson lamp and eye clock and that's just one room!) the home has some solid finishes too. I love the kitchen with it's marble countertops, grain matched cabinets and the pop of blue in the tile. The rest of the house is equally tasteful with quality finishes as well. It's interesting that they don't include any great shots of the front of the house. Don't let that fool you though, I've seen it and it's quite nice.

It's amazing what the location can do to the overall price of a house. While $400k isn't cheap, this east riverside house is a great price for a nearly 2,500 sq/ft modern new construction.  Some of the design is a bit more contemporary than I prefer, but I suspect that could be easily overcome with some proper furnishing.

When you start to branch out to "modern at heart" homes you venture into the murky waters of modernism. Craftsman was the original modern, with it's clean lines and simple detailing. This Hyde Park home leans more craftsman than modern, but with it's updated kitchen and bathrooms, and rear addition, I find myself drawn to it none the less. Thoughts?

2505 Stratford : Dick Clark

Dick Clark is perhaps one of the most well known and respected modern architects currently practicing in Austin currently, so it goes without saying that a 5,000 + square foot Dick Clark designed home doesn't come cheap. So dust off your checkbooks and get ready to write a big check for this gorgeous (and expensive) Rollingwood home.

I've been waiting for this one to the the MLS so I could share it with everyone. This fantastic MCM house is gorgeous, and an absolute steal. The current owners have lived in it for 30+ years and it has been well maintained. The bathrooms and kitchen could use an update, but honestly those are the things I'd rather do myself anyway. The home itself has ample lighting from multiple clearstory and full height windows, and it has a fantastic courtyard leading down to the pool. Anyone know the architect on this home?
