AC+RI HOTEL - DALLAS / TX The AC+RI at the Galleria catalyzes a progressive architectural tone for the imminent 4-billion-dollar redevelopment of the Dallas Midtown district and Dallas at large. Anchoring a future 5-acre central park, the dual-branded hotel merges the AC Hotels’ Spanish architectural sensibility with Dallas’ pragmatic urbanism. Simply conceived as a lightweight latticework that levitates above the hotel’s public space, the facade’s faceted planes evolve under the diffusive north light throughout the day. The lattice serves up an architectural lingerie that scantily clads the transparent lobby and lounge between the public pedestrian realm and the lush, bamboo-lined pool courtyard. It splays down to the street level, engaging with passing pedestrians, and their dogs, to encourage interaction with the architecture along the interstitial exterior space between it and the lobby. The design relies on a precisely fabricated metal rainscreen cladding system which requires a high degree of manual fabrication skills. Layered ceiling planes in the public space bring warmth to the expansive ‘Dallas Midtown’s Living Room’ and suggestively subdivide the zones of social interaction. In daytime, the lobby and lounge is one contiguous limpid space that feels as an extension of the streetscape and the courtyard. During the evening, it’s a warm-cast voluminous space with views out to the urban night scene and the internal pool party. 5G STUDIO COLLABORATIVE
1217 MAIN ST. - DALLAS / TX The most striking component of 1217 Main Street is its façade which is a commissioned mosaic by Jorge Pardo, a MacArthur Fellowship Genius Grantee. With over 36,000 hand-set ceramic tiles, 1217 Main Street is an anchor within a larger downtown Dallas revitalization where the city and developers have been investing over the last two decades to regenerate the urban core of Dallas. The ground floor and basement house a butcher, bakery, commissary with four floors of offices above. Our office has been located in downtown Dallas since the firm’s founding, and to reinforce the firm’s commitment to Main Street Dallas, we relocated to the upper three floors of 1217 Main Street in 2017. 5G STUDIO COLLABORATIVE
OMNI HOTEL - DALLAS / TX Located in the center of the revitalized downtown Dallas, Omni Dallas Hotel is connected via sky bridge to the Dallas Convention Center and close to restaurants, shops, the Dallas Arts District and more. Local history and flavor is showcased throughout the hotel. Guest rooms, meeting space and restaurants all feature pieces from local Dallas artists. Stunning views of downtown can be enjoyed from the terrace pool deck and spacious fitness center. Omni Dallas Hotel is built to meet the U.S. Green Building Council LEED Gold Certification standards, placing it on the forefront of environmental awareness and conservation in the city. One of the most striking features is the LED lighting on the exterior. It’s covered in more than 2,200 protective tubes, each of which houses three 3-foot-long LED fixtures. Put together, the strips measure about 4 miles long. The LEDs would have several lighting patterns - from a Jawbreaker maze to advertisements for the Dallas Cowboys. 5G STUDIO COLLABORATIVE
BATU HOTEL - BATU / INDONESIA By creating a resort that builds on the mountainous natural landscape, this proposal can distinguish itself by becoming a unique, compelling destination for guests. Sited at the base of a mountain in Indonesia, these hotels will exemplify innovative luxury. An architecture driven by a need for an abundance of innovative experiences throughout the resort results in a compelling destination for travelers from around the world. Design cues derived from the Indonesian landscape allow a pair of monumental towers to be seamlessly integrated into the mountainside. The towers are connected by a cloud-like, voluminous screen of metal tubes that envelopes the lower floors and distort the actual lower bounds of the towers. This screen system was inspired by the early morning mist that hovers at the base of surrounding mountains. This lightweight, airy, transparent screen contradicts the traditional notion of a solid plinth. Sky gardens located throughout the resort further reinforce its connection to the landscape. 5G STUDIO COLLABORATIVE
LEGACY ER - ALLEN / TX Legacy ER-Allen is a Texas state-licensed 7,632 SF Freestanding Emergency Medical Care facility in Allen, Texas. This is the second project by 5G Studio for Legacy ER and is their second facility. The design concept built upon the success of their first facility in Frisco, Texas where the distinctive architecture and interior design of the facility continue to bring as much brand recognition as the exceptional medical service offered by Legacy ER. The building combines two traditionally separate programs, the Emergency Room and the Urgent Care, under one roof. The progressive architectural design integrated the elements of sustainable and evidence-based design to offer a soothing environment for patients seeking care under distressed conditions. The project held its groundbreaking ceremony on March 21, 2013 and is poised to become a new landmark in the City.Legacy ER-Allen is a Texas state-licensed 7,632 SF Freestanding Emergency Medical Care facility in Allen, Texas.

WINNWOOD RESIDENCE - DALLAS / TX Located on a wooded lot directly across from a land & water conservation project funded by the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department & the US Department of Interior, Winnwood is an energy-positive private residence certified LEED Platinum. On the interior, landscapes smear across white reflective plaster planes, amplifying the monochromatic interior pallet and allowing the colors of time and season to affect space. For the resident, this interdependence between atmosphere and architecture creates an ever changing interior landscape; each space is intended to feel unique while deeply dependent on nature. Outside, the black and white plastered exterior is planted with evergreen vines so the house itself will be absorbed into the landscape over time. The back two thirds of the property are devoted to occupants and home. The front third is designed as an extension to the conservation project across the street; native and adaptive species are sculpted to transition from neighboring lots to the rehabilitated landscape. Geothermal wells and a rain collection cistern are located under the driveway which is designed to minimize runoff and increase water permeability. A 10kW solar array on the roof generates the electricity to offset all of the energy consumed by the property. 5G STUDIO COLLABORATIVE
GOLDEN TULIP HOLLAND PARK RESORT - EAST JAVA / INDONESIA The 260-room Condotel + 25,000 SF convention center Holland Resort is located in the mountainous region of East Java, in a town that was a popular holiday destination to East and Central Java residents during long weekends and national holidays. Surrounded by 4 mountains, Arjuna to the East, Panderman to the West, and Semeru and Bromo to the South, the approach to the site design optimizes the views to the valleys and mountains and encloses a private garden between the buildings that terminates at an open-air concrete-shell wedding pavilion. Mediating the public street and the enclosed garden is a grand outdoor patio that is flanked by the convention facility on the West and a transparent outdoor dining lounge to the East which has an accessible sloping roof above it that serves as an elevated viewing platform to watch the spectacular sunrise arising from behind Mount Arjuna. Since its opening, the resort has catalyzed the revival of Batu as a holiday destination and set a new standard of quality for lodging accommodation in the region. 5G STUDIO COLLABORATIVE
