801 Barton Springs
Austin, TX, United States
Located along Barton Springs Road, 801 is in the center of cultural activities that define the City. The incredibly narrow site provided an opportunity to deliver a unique solution that celebrates the site’s connection to nature. Three shifting volumes, like limestone riparian ledges, are oriented to optimize programmatic elements, frame views and provide a direct pedestrian connection to the park for the nearby neighborhood. The upper portion, cladded in dark glass and metal panels, signifies a serene pool, like one might find at the top of a waterfall, and hosts all the office levels. The middle volume, wrapped in precast concrete panels, hosts the parking garage. The custom pattern evokes water in vertical flow cascading over a limestone ledge. The lower volume of the building, defining the lobby and restaurant, is the refreshing redirection of the cascade as it unites with the urban streetscape; splashing with activity, connectivity and promise.
