Westwood Country Club Renovations







PROJECT LOCATION: Austin, Texas
CLIENT: Westwood Country Club
DOC: 2001

DESCRIPTION:
The project included full architectural and interior design services for renovation and additions to the existing lower level of the Westwood Country Club of approximately 7,384 gross square feet in area. The scope of work includes extensive modifications to health club facilities, kitchen, and associated lakeside dining modifications to the exterior of the existing dining room, and new second floor terrace off the existing main dining room. Also included is a new free standing bathouse adjacent to the existing swimming pool. It presents as a garden wall with arbor roof elements as opposed to a conventional building. Later phases anticipate the reconstruction of walls and landscape.

The club, founded in 1955, has a strong architectural history. The new facilities had to insert into the existing context of the club in a manner that was appropriate and also honest to the time of construction, that would wear well with time and become "timeless".
