Camacho Residence
San Antonio, TX

This private residence, located near the foothills of San Antonio, Texas and overlooking the city, was designed for a couple with contrasting design directives; one internally focused towards a courtyard and the other externally directed at the horizon. The resolution combined the two within the forms of a traditional Colombian hacienda, recalling the wife’s heritage. The design includes main living areas, guest suites, and garage wrapped around a courtyard with a lap pool and an upper loft containing the master bedroom suite. In addition, a lookout tower was incorporated into the roof of the entry court with a sleeping porch off the master bedroom to provide a 360 view of the horizon for stargazing and views of the city below to appease the astronomy hobbyist.
