The Domain II Renovation

Simon Property Group and our team did more than just renovate a two-acre (one hectare) pedestrian space at The Domain in Austin, Texas. They broke down walls.

The previous design had created a visual and physical barrier that hid many storefronts, limited pedestrian use, and kept the site from becoming what it could be¡ªa versatile multi-functional and community-oriented resource. The client challenged our design team to create a unique identity for Domain II, one that would remove these barriers, provide a flexible, open space, and greatly increase vibrancy.

The team¡¯s versatile design allowed greater pedestrian traffic while creating a new space that fit The Domain¡¯s aesthetic and architectural character. There¡¯s a gathering area for social engagements, and it features a centrally-located great lawn. The great lawn¡ªand the iconic cable shade structure above it¡ªhelp to make Domain II a desired destination within the overall development.

As one of Austin¡¯s signature pedestrian plazas, Domain II has become the place to go for festivals, seasonal events, live music, farmers¡¯ markets, informal dining, fitness classes, kids¡¯ play, and many other outdoor activities.?
