Building Culture through intentional design with Austin Tunnell

Austin Tunnell is an emerging developer that designs and builds stunning, community-oriented, and masonry framed homes. His work extends from pocket neighborhoods to custom homes with his sights on more urban infill guided by a new urbanism philosophy.

Austin decided at an early age that being a CPA at a big four accounting firm was not the path for him. He quit his job and began getting immersed into sustainable building/living in Panama before joining the Peace Corps in Uganda. He then teamed up with Clay Chapman to learn how to be a builder in Oklahoma and has never left. 

This is someone that we will certainly want to keep on our radar to see the great work that he will continue to inspire with his design-build firm Building Culture.
