Practice an architectural office 829 WEST JEFFERSON BOULEVARD, DALLAS, TEXAS, 75224 office@practicearchitecturaloffice.com 22 September 2025 RE: HLC Brief for 2512 and 2514 Wooldridge The home that has been designed at 2512 and 2514 Wooldridge Drive is a structure that will use a unified development agreement to create a single family residence that is aligned in scale and lot size of many of its neighbors in the district. The home uses antique tile shingle for the roof and echoes both the scale and materials of many of the historic contributing homes in the neighborhood. An arcade porch structure serves as the entrance of the home and creates a buffer between the street and more public program of the residence. Careful attention to the scale of the façade and the placement of the volumes allows the structure to sit well with the properties to the left and right. We achieved this by having a pronounced entry volume that protrudes from the façade while the remaining volumes recede into the lot. Floor to floor heights and overall structure height and mass are in keeping with the adjacent houses as well. The home seeks to continue the estate architecture of the district with a clear reference to historic form and materials while acknowledging the scale and proportion of the immediate neighbors. The home has been designed to meet the historic design standards and the zoning requirements to which it is subject. Sincerely, Patrick Craine RE: Interior design contract for 1319 Cedar Hill 1
