We’re thrilled to announce that we have opened our doors in Austin, Texas! Alongside our international offices in Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Dubai and Melbourne, we now have a full-service team on the ground in the United States. To celebrate this milestone, we had a fantastic week of events including a wonderful night at the state theatre hosted by Design Austin. Here, UNStudio founder and principal architect, Ben van Berkel, gave a lecture on “Transformational Cities & Places of Tomorrow,” and then sat down with Austin Transit Partnership (ATP) Executive Vice President of Architecture & Urban Design, Peter Mullan, to discuss about the synthesis of architecture and infrastructure in urban design. This conversation also provided insights into how we are thinking about the larger project that we’re working on alongside ATP and our other collaborators – the Austin Light Rail. This project not only can enhance and shape the form of Austin, but is one of the main reasons why we’ve decided to open our doors in this vibrant, dynamic, and transformative city. We like to extend the warmest of thanks to all our colleagues and clients who made this such a success! Stay tuned for more to come!
