The project
Rhode Partners provided the architecture and interior design for The Loren at Lady Bird Lake, the first urban hotel in The Loren's collection, at Riverside Drive and Lamar Boulevard in Austin. Completed in 2022, the eight-storey building has 108 hotel rooms and 24 residences, with a ground-floor cafe and a public rooftop restaurant.
The hotel and residences are joined horizontally and split by an open-air paseo and a glass lift. A brutalist concrete structure meets handcrafted materials, including a hammered copper lobby ceiling, timber and steel screens and deep green textiles that recall the tree canopy of the Hike and Bike Trail.
