Ward, a glass and stucco box at 2321 Ryan Ave. by Philip Newburn Architecture a historic renovation and update at 2924 Alton Road by Tom Holifield, A beautiful midcentury modern at 4032 Eldridge by Konstrukcio Studio, a modern take on Arts & Crafts lines at 3928 Bishop Flowers by Cornerstone Design Build, and a Hill Country Contemporary at 575 Quail Ridge by Richard Wintersole.
