Limestone Creek
A subtle Moorish influence introduced to San Antonio by early 20th century architect Harvey Page held a strong influence on the new house. The owners had lived in Page’s family home, and trips to Morocco reinforced a respect for a vernacular dialect that the architect had enjoyed exploring in Texas. The house is strongly integrated into the garden and experienced through a series of courtyards and pavilions that step up the hillside.
