DESIGN

INNOVATION

COMMUNICATION

SUSTAINABILITY

Great design solutions often spring from the collaborative discussion of multiple design options between the design team, the client and consultants. We compare and review these options, and through a process of deletion and selection, synthesize the solutions to meet our clients’ needs. A wide range of tools are utilized to communicate design ideas, including physical models, hand sketches, 3D renderings and virtual fly-throughs. By involving the entire project team, we achieve our goals of creating consensus and minimizing road blocks.

BOKA Powell utilizes an effective communication style that brings order to the multiple ways team members interface by supporting tools they use, including conference calls, e-mail, GoToMeeting and video conferencing.

Our online management of project information – including meeting notes, design presentations and construction documents – allows the client and consultant team to have continuous, yet controlled access for review, mark-up and group discussion. Our pioneering use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) has further enhanced the ability of the consultant team to coordinate complex building systems and discover cost-saving solutions.

Recognized throughout our industry for our ingenuity and practicality, we carefully evaluate new technology in building design and construction, including integrated project delivery and Building Information Modeling (BIM), evolutions in construction systems, new materials, advances in under-floor air distribution and MEP systems, and progressive improvements in the technical and cost performance of building systems and materials. Our philosophy is to safeguard the interests of our clients by thoroughly evaluating the track record of any new concepts and materials prior to proposing their use on a project.

BOKA Powell is committed to creating respectful, sustainable design solutions. The main objectives of our green design approach are to minimize the wasteful expense of energy, water and raw materials, and mitigate environmental degradation caused by materials and systems throughout their life cycle, and beyond. We work to achieve these goals as a matter of course throughout all of our projects, striving where possible to specify materials and systems that have an environmental benefit. When sustainability is a stated goal of the client, our LEED®-accredited design teams bring the ability to achieve the highest standards up to LEED Platinum certification.

10,000 SF BOKA Powell and landscape partner Design Workshop were selected as one of three winning teams, besting more than 150 international design submissions, in the City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department’s adaptive re-use design competition to revitalize the historic Seaholm Intake Facility on Lady Bird Lake. BOKA Powell’s concept for the mixed-use redevelopment, entitled “Lakehouse,” consists of improvements to the publicly-owned park, hike and bike trail, Cesar Chavez streetscape, and the multipurpose adaptive re-use of the existing concrete structure housing event space, food service, fitness, wellness, roof gardens, exhibit, water play, and performance spaces. A figurative architectural connection slices between the existing buildings and forms a portal to the lake stretching all the way across the street and connecting downtown Austin directly to the Lake. Sustainable energy concepts, as well as passive and evaporative cooling techniques take the previous power plant structure off the grid, and flexible architectural interventions to the fenestration and floor systems allow for a wide range of public and recreation uses. A mobile barge is attached as a static deck along the lake frontage, and can be repositioned for alternative uses such as kayak concerts, triathalon launching points, fireworks watching platforms, and more. Local artist Magda Sayeg and real estate consultant Will Steakley from Den Property Group contributed to the design effort.

The annual event highlights Waller Creek’s impact on Austin’s social, cultural, and ecological future. All are invited to visit the creek, enjoy the installations, and connect with the ongoing transformation of the area. The Creek Show lounge will provide information about the exciting park features and programs associated with the new Waterloo Park which will be open to the public next year.

BOKA Powell’s String Theory explores the unity of light and water in a unique and colorful way. The piece continuously twists reflecting life’s unexpected journeys. Harmonious strings mimic the soft flow of Waller Creek as the water reflects the vibrant colors back. This interplay between light and water symbolizes life’s road: it is filled with dark spots, yet is illuminated with dazzling colors that create the kaleidoscope we call life. String Theory creates a unified and playful walkway for all to experience.
