Preston Hollow Architect & Interior Designer | Maestri Studio
Recognized by D Home as both a Best Architect and a Best Designer, one of the only Dallas
studios honored on both lists.
Preston Hollow is defined by space. Generous, often flat lots, deep setbacks, and a sense of
privacy that is rare so close to the center of Dallas. Homes here are not packed shoulder to
shoulder; they sit back behind gates and mature trees, with room for motor courts, pools, guest
houses, and gardens that unfold across an acre or more. That openness is both an invitation
and a responsibility. A Preston Hollow home has to earn its scale, holding together as a single
composition rather than a collection of grand gestures.
Maestri Studio designs Preston Hollow homes as complete environments. Because
architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture all live under one roof, the footprint of
the house, the flow of the rooms, and the gardens that surround it are conceived together from
the first sketch. The result is a home where the arrival, the entry sequence, the main living
spaces, and the back lawn read as one continuous idea. Nothing feels added on later.
Our principal, Eddie Maestri, AIA, lives in Preston Hollow, which gives the studio a resident's
understanding of how these homes actually live day to day: how the light moves across a deep
lot, how families use the distance between formal and casual spaces, and how a house can feel
both impressive and genuinely comfortable. Our Prestonshire project is one example of that
sensibility, a home designed to feel gracious at scale without ever feeling cold.
Preston Hollow welcomes range, from classic Georgian and traditional estates to clean,
contemporary architecture, and we design across that spectrum. What stays constant is
restraint and proportion. Whether a client wants a transitional family home or a fully modern
statement, we resist trend for its own sake and design something that will still feel right in twenty
years.
Maestri Studio is one of the only Dallas firms recognized by D Home as both a Best Architect
