Tall
Tall House is a vertical infill dwelling on a narrow, grandfathered lot in Houston. Two stacked volumes organize five levels of living from street to roof while supporting passive cooling. A breezeway on the third level brings light and air through the section, enabling cross ventilation and stack effect airflow. A rentable ground level suite adds flexibility, and an industrial material palette anchors the house within its dense urban setting.
Tall House by William Price has been recognized as a grand representation of architectural design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Tall House earned the Iron A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2026. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is a highly prestigious international design recognition program that celebrates excellent design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
