About Modern Austin

August 18th, 2005

The only real concept here is to raise awareness of the history of modern home design in Austin and to encourage continued development.

This will encompass:

• Features on exisiting homes including mid-century examples and contemporary. Ultimately we hope to create a map of all existing modern homes/areas and document as much possible as the history behind their creation.
• Interviews/features/listings for architects, designers, builders, developers, … basically anyone who is working to further good design locally.
• For Sales listings. One of the frustrating thing for those looking for modern design homes is wading through hundreds of listings that you have absolutely no interest in.
• Renovations. Both restoring modern examples and transforming traditional homes into modern dwellings.
• More as appropriate.

Modern Austin (or myself) does not have a financial interest in any for sale listing or business profiled. If at any point in the future this changes, it will be noted.
