Jersey01 Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 I recently found out that there is a house designed by Paul Laszlo somewhere in Old Braeswood. Does anyone know where exactly this house is located as I would love to drive by the place. Laszlo did some really great furniture designs for companies which include Herman Miller. I guess I really need to pick up the Houston Architectural Guide. Any suggestions of where I can find one other than Amazon? Perhaps Half Price Books?
