DETAILS

LocationAustin, Texas, United States of America
ClientBrandywine Realty Trust
Size2 Acres

Bringing a singular landscape design expression to a site featuring two buildings designed by different architects, the SWA/Balsley team worked to seamlessly integrate a variety of outdoor spaces to accommodate the mixed-use One Uptown. At the ground level, tree-lined streetscapes and bike lanes lead visitors to a coworking and dining courtyard along Burnet Road, followed by an intimate public park with a play lawn, serpentine seat wall, and hammocks. At the project’s podium level, an expansive 40,000-square-foot amenity terrace unites the office and residential towers, designed by Page Sutherland Page and GFF Architects, respectively. Office and residential tenants have access to a rich array of amenities that take advantage of the mild year-round climate, including outdoor meeting areas, a swimming pool, cabanas and lounges, a grilling station, and game and fitness areas.

One Uptown is located within the 66-acre Uptown ATX neighborhood, designed by SWA/Balsley with Coleman & Associates, in collaboration with Brandywine Realty Trust and a multidisciplinary team of designers, planners, and engineers.
