The transformation of the lobby space within The Woodlands Towers at the Waterway is a product of Howard Hughes’ commitment to providing the highest quality design and amenities within The Woodlands, TX. The project scope included the introduction of a new food and beverage operator, Bluestone Lane, as well as new lighting, furniture and plants throughout the lobby.

Our design approach centered around creating a harmonious fusion of Bluestone Lane's ethos with the elegance of the existing space. A carefully curated color palette was employed in the kiosk materials and the ancillary furniture to complement both the Bluestone Lane aesthetic and the architectural elements of the lobby. Natural woods and caramel tones, prominently featured in the kiosk screen, dining chairs, and select lounge furniture, imbue the space with warmth and texture. Shades of blue echo the Bluestone Lane brand and The Woodlands’ iconic Waterway, weaving the two concepts together. The introduction of lush greenery on a grand scale anchors the space by defining lounge groupings, while also creating a symbolic and literal connection to nature.

Through meticulous attention to detail and a keen understanding of the client's vision, the lobby has become a destination, rather than a pass-through. This space not only celebrates the essence of the Bluestone Lane brand but has also enhanced the overall experience of the space for tenants and visitors alike.

This boutique hotel is unique to Texas. It’s eclectic palette caters to clientele that value authentic experiences but don’t want to skimp on luxury and service.

The interior refresh is tailored to it’s Museum District location which is more theatrical and opulent. There are two guestroom palettes. One is rich and bold - Modern Renaissance, while the other is light and bright with pops of color, Hollywood Baroque. Both designs continue the classical language already within the hotel but do so in a new and elevated way. The headboard resembles a collection of antique picture frames, the integrated nights stands are fluted like Greek columns, the lighting sparkles, and the textiles are painterly and plush.

This soon-to-be boutique hotel is a historic 1920s brick building located right on Park City’s Main Street. It is in the progress of becoming an exclusive 14-key boutique hotel with a restaurant and bar on the bottom floors.

The aesthetic of the interior is curated and eclectic. There are traditional elements pulled from the building’s historical context, as well as contemporary motifs taken from Park City’s vibrant art scene. The architectural elements, like the brick walls and wood floors are highlighted with thoughtful restoration, while fun forms and pops of color are layered into the interior using furniture and art. The juxtaposition between traditional and contemporary, and old and new, constructs the narrative of Park City as a lively community and global destination.

The Esperson is one of Houston’s few historic landmarks downtown. It’s interior showcases 1920’s Art Deco motifs, rich colors, patterns and textures.

The owner wanted to update the office restrooms, without losing their original charm.

This exercise shows options where the Esperson’s signature granite is kept at the stalls and the matching attic stock material is used to create the vanity countertops. A new porcelain floor is added, thoughtfully bringing in colors from the lobby. Mirrors with curved corners and sconces with cut glass add detail and enhance the revived art deco aesthetic.

This residential renovation aims to convert two office floors into luxurious residential apartment units.

When approaching the design of the units, it was important for us to introduce a contemporary palette, while also embracing the design elements found throughout the building. Arches, curved corners, brass metal, emerald greens, and stone with elegant veining were used in the residential palettes to emulate the lobby. Clean European-style millwork and smooth white walls, emphasize these features within each unit.

This home is settled in a forested area of the Texas Hill Country. The owners wanted to embrace a Texas regionalist style by utilizing local materials and embracing Texas ranch forms. The interior is warm, yet contemporary. Simple plaster walls highlight the views beyond and natural materials bring the outdoors in.

“Located on an ideal site featuring sandy soils and rolling topography near Aiken, South Carolina, The Tree Farm seeks to bring to life a transcendent modern golf experience that respects, amplifies, and blends in with the natural landscape. The masterplan and buildings for the project all work toward creating simple, thoughtful spaces that are rooted in and responsive to the place, climate, culture, and rich history of the game.

A simple material palette blends with the natural surroundings, including wood sourced from on-site, local reclaimed brick, and Corten roofs that dissolve at the edge.

Interior spaces like the Bar/Grill and Locker Rooms thoughtfully gather views and light, creating intimate places for gathering at multiple scales under timber framed vaults.” - WAL Studio

Cabins take on their own unique aesthetics based on their location and room type. The material palettes are simple and refined to provide a comfortable, yet grounding experience completely focused on the golf.
