Legacy on Rio is a mixed-use student housing project located in the heart of the West Campus area of University of Texas at Austin. Affordability meets innovation in this project where residents have access to elevated amenities including smart housing, study rooms, courtyard, sun deck, and fitness center. A geometric design language is expressed throughout the building’s exterior; an angular, structural screen adorns the front façade, offsets the blocked stucco pattern and is followed by a bold, triangular mural on the exterior wall of the rooftop deck. A balance of timeless materials with a thoughtful and dynamic composition expresses both playfulness and elegance in this stand-out project.
