Saddlebranch

This Houston home is white inside and out, it is modern, yet not cold or stark. It is the perfect backdrop for an eclectic collection of contemporary and modern art. There are large-scale paintings and smaller sculptures, installations of tearful sheep heads and an unexpected assortment of glass tongues. The dining room table accommodates 10 chairs, but open the big patio doors and add extensions, and it becomes one long table all the way out to the patio fireplace, to seat up to 50. Much of the downstairs is meant for relaxing and entertaining, from the spacious great room to the wide backyard with a pool that doubles as a dance floor when covered with custom Lucite decking.
