Lake Flato Architects on 17 acres in Kyle.
The Alamo Cement plant, being demolished and sold for scrap, was where a 180 ft. long, 40 ft. wide, and 20 ft. tall 1920s steel-framed building was selected, disassembled and trucked to acreage of Texas Hill Country. The existing warehouse was re-erected into three separate bays: an open garage shed, the world’s largest screened porch and a very narrow corrugated metal master suite. The buildings work with the oak trees to create two distinctive courtyards: an entry court defined by the open pavilion and a river court defined by the screened building.
