Wickmere Mews // DSGN Associates

Perched on high ground west of the Trinity River, the 1908 Wickmere Mews townhome provides a sweeping view of downtown Dallas. This single-family dwelling serves as a bookend to the adjacent townhouse development but maintains its own style. This modest-size lot challenged the architect to use the space efficiently. 

The home is designed to accommodate the owner’s impressive collection of contemporary paintings. It features a steel and wood material palette, and is organized around a centrally located U-shaped staircase. The bedrooms and living spaces are maximized to bring in exterior light and frame the skyline view to the east. A roof deck provides a 360-degree view of the city.
