2010 AIA Austin Homes Tour Recap

It got a little busy in the living room.

Mark Lind, the project designer, with some of his admirers.

Inside the new kitchen.

I had fun talking with lots of tour takers.

Beautiful weather, and a brief moment of calm.

October started off with a bang as we saw thousands of architecture buffs visit our home in this year's AIA Austin homes tour. We had a great time visiting with everybody who came out; Austin certainly has lots of design minded folks who love good residential architecture. The beautiful weather helped also.

Our homeowner-clients finally have their home back after weeks of preparation and fine tuning. They are real troopers for opening their home to the public. It's quite something to see a lawn full of removed shoes and scores of curious visitors exploring every inch of your home. Fortunately for them, we put them up at a cool Austin hotel Saturday night, so they escaped most of this trying experience.

Next up: the NARI homes tour this very weekend. More on that tomorrow!
