Zilker Studios is an urban multi-family development by Foundation Communities located in the heart of the South Lamar neighborhood. Acton Partners consulted for Forge Craft Architecture + Design to develop durable, maintainable details for FC as a long-term owner while being conscious of material costs.

We worked alongside Bartlett Cocke on detail execution and troubleshooting of some complex conditions, including blind-side waterproofing, sloped site drainage, and an exterior oculus feature clad with stucco.

The project opened in 2023 and serves as a key affordable housing development in Austin.
