Llano Exit Strategy
Four couples who are good friends purchased a beautiful piece of land on the Llano River in Texas. After considering building one large house, they instead decided to have separate small cabins for each couple, along with a shared common building with a kitchen, space for group dinners and activities, and guest accommodations. One of the couples had previously worked with architect Matt Garcia Design, so they asked him to design their cabin compound. The cabins were to be basic but comfortable, have minimal impact on the environment, and be built for a budget of about $40,000 each.
