rise at west campus
Austin, Texas
Summary
The design for this mixed-use, off-campus student housing serving the University of Texas ingeniously introduces asymmetry to an otherwise symmetrical floor-plate. Crystal-shaped exposed concrete columns add levels of visual openness, while a highly articulated perforated metal screen framed in white metal panel defines the parking mass and provides shade for pedestrians. Stepped back above the sixth level, the high-end, 24-story residential tower has 304 units and the full complement of amenities students have come to expect, from a rooftop pool equipped with that big game necessity—a Jumbotron screen—and an expansive fitness center to numerous study lounges and a jam room.
