This renovation and addition to a small house for Arthur Andersson and his children was originally owned by Charles Umlauf, a noted Austin sculptor. The project includes a new loft space on the existing stone structure and a three bedroom pavilion addition. Preserving the 30 foot square stone structure of the front house, the interior volume is organized around a large central stair ascending to a bedroom suite and an overlook into a lofted living room. There is an ancient oak tree directly behind the original house. Instead of removing the tree and extending the house, the space around the tree became a small garden, giving each of the rooms inside the house an outside view.
