“Dumptop” provides a Dallas philanthropist a contemporary aerie with spectacular views overlooking the Trinity River corridor and downtown Dallas. Located on the west Dallas escarpment, the concrete structure rises three stories. The site is oriented north to south while the spectacular views of downtown are to the east. The design creates a non-rectilinear building that affords easterly views to the city from all the major spaces. These interlocking areas provide a place for intimate gatherings while still accommodating large parties. Four structural concrete pylons hold the bulk of the small secondary functions while supporting the three primary living zones. Each living zone is capped with a hyperbolic paraboloid concrete roof plane cantilevering out to the north. Clad in stone, the building has a sense of permanence, while significant areas of glass provide amazing views to the north and east. A floating circular staircase graciously connects the various living levels. "DumpTop" is the final home designed by local architecture legend Bill Booziotis, FAIA.
