The project

Camp Frio brings a main house, two guest studio cottages and a meditation room above an art studio and garage to a grassy valley beside the Frio River. Cuppett Kilpatrick Architecture + Interior Design arranged the buildings around outdoor life, with a raised walkway connecting the main house and cottages.

A central breezeway divides the main house and opens for outdoor dining. Sliding doors allow it to be enclosed and heated when needed, while screened porches wrap the living rooms. Local materials and straightforward construction details connect the group of buildings to its setting.
