Can you imagine a home designed by an artist, an architect and an architect’s nephew? This is the Edmund and Emily Miller House Plaque, a testament to their unique collaboration. Here, on Poplar Street, stands a marker commemorating the home of Edmund T. Miller, a noted economist and University of Texas professor, and his wife, Emily. Emily, an artist and member of the pioneer Maverick family of San Antonio, was a visionary with a passion for design. Joined by her nephew, Edward Sammons Maverick, and architecture professor Raymond Everett, the trio crafted a Mediterranean-style home in 1923, perfectly complementing the hillside setting. This beautiful home boasted the artistry of Fortunat Weigl, a metal craftsman, and retained its original landscaping features, a testament to both the Miller’s eye for detail and the area’s natural beauty. This house, now a part of Texas history, stands as a symbol of their united creativity and dedication to beauty.
