Note
Most the pictures on the flickr slideshow are from the B unit (especially the inside photos). The available A unit is exactly the same in configuration (though flipped in layout). Main difference is the A unit is painted sky / cornflower blue on some walls & has a bigger kitchen island. There are some pictures of the B unit fully furnished. These shows the paint scheme before the B unit was painted and is what the available A unit currently reflects.

Always love the San Antonio mid-century modern homes that people send my way. Here is another great one for sale.

We visited Marfa over Memorial Day weekend staying at the Thunderbird Motel. The Thunderbird was recently renovated with the help of Bob Harris of Lake | Flato (who do exceptional work in my book, though this place was fairly straightforward in design).
You probably know the history of Marfa, so I’ll save you all that. If not, here is a wikipedia entry to get you going. If you want to get out of town for the weekend, I fully recommend making the trip (and taking the rural routes where possible).
Click here for a small photo tour of our stay in Marfa. This set is edited down to focus on the modern inspired buildings around town.

Harwell Hamilton Harris is probably more well known in LA or North Carolina but he did a number of buildings in Central Texas in the 50s.
Nirav Patel has put a site devoted to a tri-plex built for Profession Cranfill. Check out this great piece of Austin modernist history.

As the owner is moving out of town for the time being, this lovely place can be had for lease. Contact Nirav for more info.

A little bit late this week as I have been out of town all week. Still out of town in fact but now have internet access (albeit very slow access) while waiting in the Jacksonville airport.
