Builder and architect David Minter captured views from almost every room and 7 view patios. David developed many significant homes in the Austin area and in La Jolla, California. Ever since hos early days at UT, he was passionate and creative, and his work will remain a testament to his talent and vision. The arched doorways, special ceiling detail, and natural light create inviting and serene spaces that are perfect for relaxation and social gatherings.
