contemporary renovation in Austin

The most recent issue of dwell has an article on Austin artist Blake Dollahite’s renovated home. It struck a chord with me as we are wrapping up a little renovation project of our own. In 2003, Blake, just out of college, bought a small, decrepit property in a good neighborhood in north Austin. He transformed the bungalow into a beautiful mix of traditional space and contemporary design. Everywhere you see the attention to detail that makes life worth living, creating beauty in the patterns around us. The online version of the article has the same text, but is limited in pictures. If you have access to the magazine, it’s well worth checking out.
