200 Park Place

G2LD collaborated with The Beck Group on this 200,000 sq. ft. office high rise building located in a bustling area of Houston's River Oaks District. Direct view linears outlining the façade were used to highlight the building's glass geometry, which can be viewed from the nearby inner-city loop. Graceful linear lines were continued throughout the terraces, entry lobby, and conference center, for which G2LD was also responsible. To learn more about this project, click here.

Recently Completed:                               The Playground at Discovery Green

The reinvented Discovery Green playground is a key component in the recently completed Northwest Corner renovations. The client sought to re-imagine that corner of the park in order to better welcome the foot traffic which was increasingly approaching from that direction due to new developments and attractions in the area. As the park is used by all ages well into the evening hours, it was crucial that the lighting for the playground be both attractive and supportive of safety and security. Whimsical tree-inspired light poles are a visual centerpiece to the playscape, while well-aimed adjustable lights evenly light the area from a minimal number of poles. G2LD was proud to work in conjunction with Hargreaves Associates and Lauren Griffith Associates on this project.

Recently Completed: Texas A&M University Innovative Classroom Building
