Atlanta-based Gables Residential recently hired Ziegler Cooper Architects to create an upscale mixed-use development located in the Tanglewood area, just west of Houston’s Galleria.

The 8-story, 316 unit, concrete frame building will include a rooftop pool terrace, club room and outdoor living with views of the Galleria and Uptown. Other amenities include: lounge, dining room, theatre, fitness, outdoor kitchen and living room. A courtyard, the new home for an old oak tree that will be transplanted from the existing site, will also connect both retail and parking.

The design integrates a detailed brick and masonry facade, acknowledging the soft pastel color palette of the surrounding Mediterranean heritage of Tanglewood.
