This weekend  was the  Houston chapter  of the American Institute of  Architects'  home tour. I love  attending  these tours because you can see some of the most innovative homes in Houston.

I had the pleasure of assisting as a docent at the Allen Bianchi house. It consists of two units attached  by a walkway on the second floor and  on the first  floor  through the pool and garden area.
The main unit of the house has bedrooms on the first floor and the living areas on the  second.  The arrangement made for  a  tree house feel, with fantastic views of downtown and the surrounding neighborhood. I'd like to thank Allen Bianchi (pictured below) and the gracious homeowners for allowing me to photograph this lovely home.
