San Antonio Parade of Homes Cool Cantilever

Living room at back right corner cantilevers over pool

Cantilever:
That's what we do to be cool, and different.  Basically we engineered a structure to hang out and appear to "float" over an edge.  This year, we are cantilevering out over the pool.  That's right, when you are standing in the back left corner of the living room, you will actually be floating over the pool!  How cool is that?  Don't ask me how we pulled that off but we did.  The folks at GE Reaves and Lopez Salas Architects made it happen.  We will have a pool this year that actually goes under the house.  So when you are standing on your living room floor, there is a strong possibility that water will be underneath you.  We are always trying to push the envelope, trying to show you things unique and amazing.  If it was easy, anyone could do it.  I truly hope that you will come and visit us this year for the Parade of Homes in San Antonio, come stand on our living room and feel yourself hovering above the pool.  It will truly be an amazing experience and one that I am so glad to offer to you. I personally can't wait to do it and can't wait to hear your feedback on what you think.  God Bless America and all the wonderful things we get to try and experience as we progress forward in modern architecture.
