The project
Forge Craft Architecture + Design designed Zilker Studios, a building of 110 units for single adults on a half-acre site in Austin, completed in 2023. The site holds two heritage live oak trees, and the design was shaped to preserve them.
A breezeway between the trees acts as a shared hammock-like place where residents gather, and an opening cut through the concrete podium brings daylight deep into the building and links the residential floors with the public spaces. The building is highly energy efficient.
