Design office in Texas. Exhibition space and open-plan environments
Clayton Kort's office, located in Austin, Texas embodies the company's commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration, while also housing a landscape architecture studio and symbolically and physically blurring the line between creative studios
The office building dates back to 1963, and features a steel structure with brick infills on a hillside. The first decision was made to stabilize the structure, after which the interior was stripped out and the existing perimeter windows expanded to bring more light into the offices
The interior perimeter walls were cleaned and covered with industrial felting, turning each wall into a pin-up space to encourage collaborative design exchanges. The few private offices are located at the corners, ensuring an open and fluid floor plan
