Genaro P. and Carolina Briones House, Concrete house in East Austin, Texas, United States.

The Genaro P. and Carolina Briones House features a distinctive two-story porch and elaborate concrete decorations along its exterior walls at 1204 E. 7th Street.

Built between 1947 and 1953, the residence demonstrates construction techniques learned by Genaro Briones during his collaboration with concrete artist Dionicio Rodriguez in Memphis.

The residence stands as an example of Mexican-American architectural influence, incorporating elements of Four Square style with decorative concrete techniques from Mexico.

The exterior walls display colored concrete treatments that create textures resembling natural stone, representing the largest collection of tinted concrete ornamentation in Texas.
