MUZE

Austin, TX 189,000 sf 18 floors 158 units, 502 beds Scope: architecture

MUZE is a compact tower on .3 acres organized around a central core with a single intertwined stair. The project’s rectangular massing sits atop a low plinth that functions as a parking garage. This enables the floor plates to achieve 90% efficiency and delivers the maximum amount of net rentable square footage within a strict zoning envelope.

Placed atop the tower is an elegant, glass jewel box of amenities that gives way to a rooftop pool and ramping amphitheater that creatively doubles as pool accessibility access and sundeck.
