Projected by Lake Flato Architects company and built on a land located at the confluence between Hong Pen Creek with Lake Austin, The Hog Pen Creek Residence represents the materialization of the owners’ wish for fresh air and open space, a residence with modern architecture connected to nature and water. The footprint of the building is L-shaped and it was influenced by the presence of some old oaks, as well as by the exploitation of the offered benefits by the presence of the lake. Being pleased by the land that is situated on the strand of the lake, by the freshness of the surrounding nature, the owners wanted a big part of their house to benefit of covered outdoor porches and sidewalks that would link the residence to the environment and to the charm of the place. Also, the residence was brought closer to water by building a large pontoon, which gives a special charm of cottage.

该住宅由弗拉托湖建筑师事务所设计，建在红笔溪与奥斯汀湖交汇处的一片土地上，代表了业主对新鲜空气和休憩空间的渴望的体现，这是一座与自然和水相连的现代建筑。建筑物的足迹是L形的，它受到一些老橡树的存在以及湖的存在所带来的好处的开发的影响。业主们对位于湖滨的土地和周围自然的清新感到高兴，他们希望房子的很大一部分能从有盖的室外门廊和人行道中受益，这些走廊和人行道将住宅与环境和地方的魅力联系在一起。此外，由于建造了一座大浮桥，使住宅更接近水，这赋予了别墅独特的魅力。

The living area with a height of two stories and the master bedroom from the loft fully benefit of the cold breeze and shade of the surrounding oaks. The bedroom can be opened towards light and nature through a mobile wall that is similar to a folding door. The Hog Pen Creek Residence has a design that allows good versatility, providing both privacy and a good social capacity and it can accommodate without problems both family and guests.
