The sculptural structure of Austin Proper Hotel & Residences spans 32 floors and combines a 244-room hotel with 99 exclusive residences. Located in the cultural crossroads of Austin‘s downtown Second Street District, the project is the result of a visionary collaboration between designers Kelly Wearstler, Handel Architects and McGuire Moorman Hospitality.
The lakeside building is set amongst Austin’s creative hub, with Kelly Wearstler’s creative direction considering site-specific influences from traditions of artistry and craftsmanship unique to the Texan capital. The layered, individualistic interior takes cues from Austin’s most stately luxury homes.
Eye-catching details include a sculptural stairwell installation of 60 patched vintage rugs and a monolithic wood-and-ceramic grandfather clock in the lobby of Kelly Wearstler‘s boutique hotel. Surfaces provide interesting texture, with local artists and materials playing an important role. These include pots, trays and inlaid tiles by ceramicist Rick Van Dyke, locally quarried travertine on the pool deck, Delta wood paneling, native elmwood and antique mirror surfaces.
