Mike and Diane Jackson were extremely environmentally sensitive
clients. Their first house on the Perdenales River had been designed by
Barley & Pfeiffer Architects. Mike was extremely knowledgeable
about energy effiicient design. The Jackson's were working with builder
Marshall Willis.
The Jaskson's came to me knowing of both my experience in sustianable
architecture and my desire to design homes with a timeless look to
them. A Porte Cochere and a separate Living and Dining Room were
important considerations for the Jacksons. In addition, they wanted a
downstairs bedroom and bath, and a tornado room.
