Fareground at One Eleven
AUSTIN, TEXAS
Part park and part marketplace, Fareground transformed an underutilized urban space into a modern, inviting, and active downtown hub for professionals, residents, and visitors. The plaza features a rolling lawn and stunning, preserved oak trees. A meandering ramp offers universal accessibility and immerses visitors in the environment as they enter the space, veiling the hustle and bustle of the adjacent streetscape. Fareground utilizes a dramatic plant palette to create a verdant and comfortable setting in the midst of the built environment.
Cloudscape, Fareground’s iconic water feature, creates misty clouds from water collected from the building’s A/C condensate and creates a powerful visual beacon. Nimbus, the custom-designed and fabricated shade structure, provides relief from the intense Texas sun as well as from the immense scale of the adjacent tower as it meets the plaza floor.
