“We were never cast out of Eden. We merely turned from it and shut our eyes. To return and be welcomed, cleansed and redeemed, we are only obliged to look.”

– Margaret Renkl, The Comfort of Crows, 2023

We will be visiting an Eden in the heart of Houston. The owners of this property brought together the dream team of Taft Architects and plantman extraordinaire Will Fleming to create a home for their family. Their distinctive house is filled with art by family members and Houston icons such as Bob Camblin, Robert Campbell, and Jim Hatchett; furniture by Michael Tracy, and resonant works from around the world. Stories overlap as the house relates tale upon tale.

The owners’ lives are interwoven with the artists and plants. The house timbre changes season to season. We visitors will be welcomed into this idyll to muse and absorb its particular resonance. Come see what spring brings to this unique spot.
