Located on the East Side of Austin in Boggy Creek Park, the canopy is one structure in a three part series designed and built by the Public Interest Design studio to highlight aspects of the historic park. The structure acts as a reclined bench, step-stool, and frame for the everyday beauty of the tree canopy. Over nine weeks, we collaborated on a design, obtained city approval, sourced materials, and constructed the project, relying on a certified welder for the structural welding.

Jonestown, Texas is a small town along highway 1431 in the Texas hill country.

Civic Identity is a project that incorporates a city hall, library, dance hall, cafe, and boutique hotel into a landmark for the town. The design highlights public amenities by arranging the public programs around a large formal plaza visible from 1431. This formal plaza is contrasted with an informal plaza behind the main building which bridges the more public elements of the program to the hotel.

The project explores how to create a formal civic identity that still responds to a variety of programmatic needs with individualized spatial conditions.

PIKU+ People and Buildings

kelly.e.denker@gmail.com Professor Michael Benedikt

Piku+ is a small addition to the Piku Residence by Adrian Luchini and Dirk Denison.

The apartment echoes the main house’s stretch toward views across the water and creates a counterpoint to the main house’s inverted glass ‘v.’ The balance between openness and privacy, and assertiveness and subordination were of primary importance when adding onto the existing house.
