Zinc cladding and large stretches of glass feature in a holiday home bridging a creek that was remodeled and enlarged by American studio Fougeron Architecture.

The Suspension House serves as a weekend dwelling for a couple and their child. The project entailed the update and expansion of a 1970s, two-storey house that sits between two hills in an undisclosed location in California.

While conceiving the revamp, San Francisco’s Fougeron Architecture set out to strengthen the home’s connection to the landscape and reduce its impact on the creek.

“A man-made object in nature may exist in harmony or disparity,” the studio said.

“The goal was to reconnect this structure into the environment while best utilizing the exceptional site for the clients.”

Pemberton Heights, one of the most established, exclusive and expensive neighborhoods in Austin, Texas, has an air of history and sophistication coupled with down-home neighborliness.

Minutes from the city’s downtown, “it has an extensive legacy of being home to some of Austin’s most influential residents with a close-knit traditional neighborhood feel,” said Nicole Kessler, broker associate of the Nicole Kessler Group at Compass.

Pemberton Heights is one of the city’s most coveted neighborhoods because of its central location—in addition to being close to downtown, it also is a quick drive to the main campus of the University of Texas at Austin and to the Texas State Capitol Complex—its beauty and the fact that there are only 613 houses within its borders.
