Here’s Your Chance to Tour 9 Gorgeous Homes in Austin, Texas

For 35 years, the AIA Austin Homes Tour has offered a peek inside some of the city’s best-designed dwellings. The tour went virtual last year due to the pandemic, which expanded the celebration of Austin’s architectural achievements to a global audience—and this year, the organization is presenting a hybrid experience.

On Saturday, October 16, three of the nine homes will be open for in-person visits. Meanwhile, remote ticket holders can view exclusive photographs for each house, take a self-guided 3D walkthrough, and attend discussion sessions with each of the nine architects, which start on Friday, October 15. Take a sneak peek at the nine homes on this year’s tour below!

Clearview Residence by Webber + Studio, Architects 

 For a client seeking accessibility and privacy, Webber + Studio, Architects delivered a remodel and addition to a home in the Tarrytown neighborhood. Now, the main floor has widened doorways and no thresholds for improved flow, a floor-to-ceiling glass wall spans the back facade, and there’s even a secret garden. The aluminum-clad exterior hits at the changes within.
