TBG

A LEED Gold mixed-use development in Uptown Dallas, Park Seventeen includes a 19-story office tower and adjacent residential tower linked by a seven-story parking garage and ground-floor retail.

TBG designed the park and pool terrace atop the parking structure as a multipurpose amenity deck, which unites the two towers, provides usable outdoor space and reduces the local heat island effect. Along with an infinity edge pool, amenities include an outdoor kitchen, fireplace, glass-walled fitness center and artificial turf lawn, which is used for outdoor fitness and yoga classes.

One of the nation’s fastest-growing master-planned communities, Cinco Ranch Southwest is a multifaceted residential development outside Houston.

A pedestrian-oriented design integrates extensive trails around a central lake, providing exceptional connectivity, and amenities include a popular recreation center, the LEED Silver-certified Lake House, and a water park and pool complex. Cinco Ranch was the No. 3 best-selling U.S. master-planned community for 2010.

An illustrious resort on the southernmost tip of the Baja Peninsula, where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, Grand Solmar is an unparalleled oceanfront destination.

This remarkable getaway is elegantly situated between the waterfront and dramatic mountains, providing an incomparable backdrop to recharge. From intricate designs in the walkways to the astounding vistas around every turn, exacting attention to detail defines what has become one of Cabo San Lucas’ premier resort destinations.

TBG employed a small-town Texas aesthetic to generate urban appeal and create a long-absent town center with a sense of history. This mixed-use lifestyle center is a walkable development incorporating activated streetscapes responding to specific periods in Texas history. TBG’s design combines a central park, stylized courtyards, interactive water features and site furnishings to develop points of interest while respecting established development regulations.

In collaboration with the architecture firm HKS, TBG created a dynamic plan for the Ningbo Zixiang Paradise Crowne Plaza Resort based around a unique dragon motif, melding cultural significance, through the ancient Chinese symbol of the earth dragon, with sophisticated contemporary design sensibilities.

The plan elegantly responds to the site and represents a dragon coiled upon the southeastern shore of the East China Sea, with the dragon’s head resting atop mountains to the north. The dragon’s body is articulated through a meandering hotel framework, and a pier extending out to the sea represents the dragon’s arm holding a radiant pearl, which will be an event space and high-end restaurant. The arm also features four protruding scales that serve as private waterfront cabanas. Additional plan elements include compelling water features, an oceanfront pool and lush plantings.

Envisioned as a model of sustainability, Dell Children’s, the world’s first LEED Platinum medical facility, emphasizes the therapeutic powers of evidence-based design through innovative healing spaces that foster wellness.

The facility sits on 32 acres that originally were part of the Mueller Municipal Airport, representing one of Austin’s largest redevelopment efforts. The hospital’s six interior courtyard environments reflect the biodiversity of Central Texas through plant species representing the six ecoregions within the hospital’s 46-county service area.

TBG is currently working on the four-year-old hospital’s first major expansion, which includes a new 72-bed tower for patients.
