Capps residence
Thu, 23 Oct 2014
I have always wanted to live in a home that was very traditional on the outside and the complete opposite on the inside. This home by San Antonio, Texas firm Poteet Architects is just that, and it's FABULOUS. The exterior is absoutely gorgeous - those wrap-around porches! The interior is modern and sleek, with all of the wood work painted white (eeekkk! but admittedly, it looks great). I love the idea of people expecting to walk in to granny's house and being totally surprised. (More of their work here and here).

Well, they don't actually play the piano, do they? You don't put a grand under a staircase when you respect the music. Oh well. I like the sight lines and the kitchen, the floor details. But the choice of bathroom fixtures looks uncomfortable.

Oh yes! Me too.
