Custom Specialty Structures in Austin, TX | Unique Outdoor Builds by AC Cornerstone

One-of-a-Kind Outdoor Builds for Function, Beauty, and Lasting Value

Some outdoor projects don’t fit neatly into a standard category—and that’s exactly where we shine. At AC Cornerstone Building, we specialize in designing and building custom specialty structures in Austin, TX, that solve unique problems and enhance your property’s beauty and functionality. Whether you need a breezeway between buildings, a poolside cabana, or a firewood shelter that matches your home’s style, we bring your vision to life with care and craftsmanship.

What Are Specialty Structures?

Specialty structures are custom-built outdoor features that serve a specific purpose or aesthetic goal. Unlike pergolas, decks, or patios that follow more standard templates, specialty structures are fully tailored to your space, needs, and imagination.

Here are just a few examples of what we build:

Breezeways connecting garages, homes, or guest quarters

Privacy walls or slatted partitions for added seclusion

Garden arbors that double as focal points

Poolside cabanas for shade and storage

Wood shelters and storage enclosures

Outdoor shower enclosures

Architectural accent walls

Custom pavilions or lean-tos attached to existing structures

These projects often blend form and function—solving problems like sun exposure, storage needs, or visual gaps, while elevating the overall look and feel of your outdoor space.

Custom Structures That Fit Your Home and Your Lifestyle

Your home is unique, and your outdoor additions should be, too. We don’t use cookie-cutter templates or mass-produced kits. Instead, we work closely with you to understand how you use your space—and what you want to change about it.
