Overview

Located on a private acreage in Aledo, Texas, the Western Rim House is designed as a full-time residence tucked into the hillside. Stone, warm wood, and generous covered porches establish a timeless architectural language that feels rooted in the character of the property while extending everyday living outdoors.

Designed for daily family life, the residence balances open gathering spaces with quiet places for rest and reflection. Large windows frame the changing light filtering through the trees, while the simple forms and restrained material palette allow the architecture to recede into its natural setting. The result is a home that embraces the rhythms of the landscape, creating a peaceful retreat where family life unfolds in close relationship with the land.
