Rising across a hillside with vistas west to the city is a modernist enclave of affordable single-family houses. Emphasizing green building practices in a contemporary style, the homes are designed by some of the Central Texas's best young architects: Jaime Beaman and Jaime Palomo of CasaBella Architects (5416 and 5505 Agatha Circle) ; ClaytonLevyLittle Architects (7400 Liana Grove and 5500 Sendero Hills Parkway); Chris Krager of KRDB Design Build (5328 Agatha Circle and 5325 Sendero Hills Parkway); Patrick Ousey and Pam Chandler of FAB Architecture (7401 and 7300 Ava Lane); I. Earl Swisher of Lawrence Group (5349 Sendero Hills Parkway and 5441 Agatha Circle); and Travis G. Young of Studio Momentum (7301 Ava Lane, 5304 Agatha Circle, and 5309 Sendero Hills Parkway).
