Designed around a 150-year-old oak tree that stands directly in the centre of the plot, architect Chris Cobb‘s creation in South Central Austin effortlessly sits in with the surrounding environment, lined with gorgeous Brazillian redwood. Stretched over several floors, the space inside sets white walls off against dark chocolate bamboo floors to create a wonderful mix of natural and man-made products.
