A home that’s a phenomenal work of art has landed on the real estate market in a city that celebrates all things art related — Austin, Texas.

“The tactility of the materials serves not merely as a façade but as an intrinsic component of the landscape itself,” the listing notes. “This residence’s architectural significance is well-recognized, earning accolades such as The 2018 Architecture Master Prize and the 2017 American Architecture Award, among others.”
