A most remarkable project is the gallery and guest house in Preston Hollow designed by Bill Booziotis. Bill has designed major museums and important houses, but this is definitely his best work. In collaboration with Andrée Putman, Bill has created a space that is at once a museum and a residence, intimate and voluminous, and one with diffused light and a subtle play of light. Angled walls, corner doors and windows allow the space to unfold with uninterrupted walls for art under the complex curve of the barrel vaulted ceiling.

Jerry Sporleader was the original owner of the home designed by Downing Thomas and Bill Booziotis. The Carrs have expanded the house using Michael Lee and Emily Summers. The house is at the base of a steep hill overlooking Turtle Creek and the high-rises in the distance. The Carrs state that they enjoy the simple lines, and true house feeling, and the contemporary setting in the middle of an urban area. On Turtle Creek Drive a person finds garages turned into townhouses, historic estates, modern houses, new houses, and yet their is nothing visually incongruous about the different approaches to this private drive.
