It is the owner's recollection the original home was built by Bill Coleman, an influential architect who designed & built many mid-century modern homes in Austin in the 1950s and 1960s. He was known for his minimalist style & use of natural materials such as wood and stone.Some of his notable projects include the Balcones Residence (1958), which was featured in Architectural Record & Houston Chronicle, & the original Galleria shopping center in Houston. Coleman was also a professor of architecture at the University of Texas at Austin for many years, & his work helped to establish Austin's reputation as a center for modernist architecture. The lot is located in the highly desirable schools, both Zilker Elementary and O. Henry Middle School are nearby.
