Interior designer and contractor commissions her son – an upstart fresh out of architecture school – to design a contemporary house she will build for herself. The resulting project becomes the social hub for a close-knit family and the inaugural work of a mother-and-son firm.

室内设计师和承包商委托她的儿子-刚从建筑学校毕业的新贵-为她自己设计一套当代的房子。由此产生的项目成为一个紧密家庭的社会中心，也是母子公司的开创性工作。

Michael Viviano’s parents tapped him for the design of a new house that would accommodate their busy lifestyles and serve as the social hub for their close-knit family. Their desire was to have openness to a point, but for the entertaining spaces to have a somewhat traditional degree of separation between them.

迈克尔·维维亚诺(MichaelViviano)的父母为他设计了一套新房子，以适应他们忙碌的生活方式，并成为他们紧密联系的家庭的社交中心。他们的愿望是有一个开放的一点，但娱乐空间之间有某种传统程度的分离。

The site is a busy corner lot in a bustling part of Houston, so the interior of the house and the exterior landscape needed to cultivate a quiet sense of calm. Stylistically, Michael had to ease his parents’ transition from a series of more traditional homes to a more modern setting. The massing of the house and choice of materials would need to maintain a dialogue with familiar house typologies and vernacular forms. The interior would be set up as a clean, streamlined backdrop for the antique and vintage furnishings the couple would bring with them, which would blend with contemporary pieces as they settled in.

该网站是一个繁忙的角落地段，在繁忙的部分休斯顿，所以内部的房子和外部景观需要培养安静的平静感。在文体上，迈克尔不得不缓和他父母从一系列更传统的家庭向更现代的环境的过渡。房子的聚集和材料的选择需要与熟悉的房屋类型和方言形式保持对话。内部将作为一个干净，流线型的背景，一对夫妇将带来古董和古董家具，这将与当代的作品融合在一起。
