Austin Color-Block Amenity Center

A community marketing to first-job Austin renters asked for an amenity building with genuine personality — something that would photograph well and still feel welcoming on the fiftieth visit.

The answer was a colour-blocked plan. Hexagonal carpet tile in cobalt, tangerine and lime is laid as a loose scatter that pulls residents from the leasing desk through the club room to the game bay, while painted soffits in turquoise and citrus lift the tall volumes without adding cost.

The furniture stays deliberately quiet against all that pattern: white laminate work surfaces, black task seating, a clean-lined demonstration kitchen with orange counter stools. A curated programme of framed graphic prints runs the length of the circulation spine and gives the business centre its one moment of calm.

Outside, the palette carries onto the pool deck in yellow cabana canvas and cobalt loungers, so the community's colour story is legible from the street.
