Frank Welch design makes us happy

Architect Frank Welch designed modern and Texas Modern homes that were vibrant, filled with sunlight, and perfectly sited as this home in my favorite neighborhood, Turtle Creek Park, across from Turtle Creek and backed up to to the Katy Trail that leads to Trinity Groves.

Surprise of a city lot

Some city modern homes blend into the cityscape or the landscape from the street and then as one moves through the house comes the surprise!

Dynamic Settings Win Out

It is not how much land a home is on but what it is next to. Even more important than four acres of land is that the home is on a point with 270° views of the 1,015-acre White Rock Lake, sail boat races, rowers, kayakers, cyclists, runners.

Elevate Design Elevate a Home

Cantilevering 50% of a home over the site saves the trees of the forested lot by protecting the root system. #trees #treeroots #cantilever #PrestonHollow #DallasNeighborhood #modernhome #modernhouse #contemporaryarchitecture #environment #JoshNimmo #JoshuaNimmoArchitecture #newconstruction #Dallas #innovation #design #urbanforest https://architecturallysignificant.dougnewby.com/architect/joshua-nimmo/
Farm House renovated becomes Modern Home

A simple farm house design with front porch overlooking a lake becomes elegant modern home.

Mobile Architectural Studio provides intimacy with a site

Airstream, a mobile modern studio for 21st century architect Joshua Nimmo, is reminiscent of mobile studio of architect Scott Lyons 50 years ago when designing Texas Modern homes.

Shortest Day, longest streaks of sunlight

Sunlight pours throughout this modern home we love in Turtle Creek Park, designed by O’Neil Ford and Arch Swank in 1936.
