The project defines a scale transition between the low-rise historic fabric of Deep Ellum and the high-rises of Downtown. The office tower, composed of stacked, offset volumes, creates outdoor patios at multiple levels and provides self-shading of the full-height glazed exterior wall, both offering panoramic views. At street level, retail activates an internal lane that forms a new gateway to the historic neighborhood. An arrival plaza with outdoor dining areas links the project to the adjacent DART rail station and places new emphasis on the guitar-playing robot sculpture “Waiting on the Train.”

Uniquely positioned opposite the main health campus, the building houses not only the latest in radiation oncology planning, but serves as a new entry marker to the BSA Health campus. This treatment center is the second location in the nation to integrate the dual-door radiation therapy treatment room design certain to improve the lives and efficiency of care for both the patient and caregiver.

Located in Downtown Dallas next to the redeveloped, historic Dallas High School and the DART Pearl/Arts District rail station, The Galbraith provides much needed affordable housing in the urban core. Fifty one percent of the project’s 217 units are workforce housing available at below market rate.  The mixed-income, multi-family development features efficiency, one, two and three-bedroom apartments as well as a rooftop pool deck, fitness center with outdoor patio and 12,000 square feet of retail space.

Once the center of social life for the Black community of Dallas, the addition and renovation of the Knights of Pythias Temple into a hotel both literally and figuratively reconnects the past and the present. Anchored by the historic structure on the corner, the addition kinks as it extends north to capture pedestrian movement and define a modern gateway into the neighborhood. The active streetscape of the area is connected to the building with ground floor retail, bar, restaurant, outdoor dining, and pool deck, reestablishing the building as the center of social life in Deep Ellum.

The project consolidates numerous satellite offices into a single facility, bringing once disconnected administrative departments into proximity with each other and the core clinical functions they support. The office space is organized as two elevated 3-acre office floor plates, placing all staff not more than one floor away from another. Under this constructed “canopy,” shaded outdoor space allows for amenity functions to extend to the outdoors and into the adjacent park.

Situated on approximately 8 acres along the northern edge of the Trinity River, THR’s surgical specialty hospital provides expansive and unobstructed views of downtown Fort Worth and the Trinity River. The lush, naturally landscaped site is highly visible from the highway and adjacent walking trails. The four-story facility incorporates 54 patient beds (16 VIP), 12 operating rooms, and full imaging services, along with amenities often experienced at a five-star hotel.

A study in architecture’s ability to enhance a workplace culture, the project builds directly from the advertising agency’s egalitarian, transparent, and creative work environment. An offset core configuration provides open views across and through the building, as well as shades the west façade from the afternoon sun. An inset on the north façade creates an outdoor patio and reveals a three-story atrium where crisscrossing stairs encourage physical activity and host all-hands meetings. A fitness center occupies the top floor, an area normally reserved for executive offices.
