918 W 43rd Street Designed for admirers of modern architecture, 918 W 43rd St. is a standout by studioMET, featured in AIA Houston’s 2013 Home Tour, and thoughtfully crafted to harness natural light at every turn. A level-5 drywall finish pairs with stained concrete floors and is warmed by solid wood beams spanning the high ceilings, creating a balance of clean lines and organic texture. The kitchen’s sleek design opens to a dining area that transitions effortlessly into the living space, all oriented toward views of the manicured backyard and pool beyond. A floating staircase leads to a secondary living area anchored by wall-to-wall built-in bookshelves. With four bedrooms, including a first-floor guest suite, the layout offers both flexibility and function. Privately positioned, the primary suite overlooks the backyard, an intentional retreat that brings a sense of calm to the home’s modern design.
