515 EL PASO STREET / $200 NIGHT

This powerful compact home's prominent feature is its grey block tower. On the ground floor the tower servers two functions, dining room and the beginning of an articulated metal stairwell that works its way up to the wood-clad catwalk. Since the tower bisects the home, dividing the owner's suite from the guest bedroom and the loft, the midair sky bridge allows traffic to flow from side of the home to the other. The colored punch-outs in the tower are composed of brazilian redwood and plexiglass. Located in eclectic South Austin just off of South First street this home has easy access to downtown and the popular entertainment areas and eateries on South Congress.
