简约现代多层酒店

东奥斯汀Arrive酒店由83个房间和一个多功能平台组成，其中包括两个餐厅、三个酒吧、一个咖啡馆、可出租的街边零售空间和停车场。业主/设计团队试图质疑已确立的反公共酒店形象——华丽的入口、“酒店”餐厅、空旷的大堂。

相反，该团队选择最小化酒店的身份，并创造出一些与其说是酒店，不如说是下面的配套设施，而这些设施都是面向公众的食品和饮料场所的集合，恰好上面有酒店房间。

The Arrive East Austin Hotel comprises eighty-three rooms and a multi-use podium housing two restaurants, three bars, a coffee shop, leasable street-side retail space, and parking. The owner/design team sought to question established anti-public hotel tropes -- the grand entry… the “hotel” restaurant… the empty lobby. Instead, the team chose to minimize the hotel identity and create something that is not so much a hotel with supporting amenities beneath than a collection of public-oriented food and beverage establishments that happen to have hotel rooms above.

虽然它是一个声明性的结构，但街道上的餐厅却声称是步行者的身份。上面，起伏的立面作为一个动态响应奥斯汀的街道指导方针的形式要求。

但是，这些花哨的设计也有其程式化的功能，因为明显变化的楼板为酒店住户创造了阳台和有顶的门廊。以同样的方式，设计使用悬臂建筑本身来创建一个规范要求的人行道覆盖。

While it is a statement structure, street-level restaurants claim the pedestrian identity. Above, the undulating facade serves as a dynamic response to one of the more form-directive requirements of Austin’s street-side guidelines. But there is a programmatic function to these flourishes as the apparently shifting floor plates create balconies and covered porches for the hotel occupants. In the same way, the design employs the cantilevered building itself to create a code-required sidewalk cover.

在东奥斯汀快速的中产阶级化过程中，ARRIVE开放了，但这里有一种社区精神在发挥作用。这虽然是一个庞大的结构，但是一个充满活力和持久性的建筑，拥抱着公众。

ARRIVE opened amidst rapid gentrification in East Austin, but there was a community ethos at play. It is a large structure, but it is a dynamic and durable building that embraces the public.

2015年，Arrive酒店集团是一家新开业的酒店，位于棕榈泉。但它的志向是在活跃的当地社区创建一家几乎没有品牌的连锁酒店。它对东奥斯汀很感兴趣。

In 2015, the Arrive Hotel Group was a new operation with a single (recently opened) hotel in Palm Springs. But it had ambitions to create an almost brandless hotel chain working within robust local neighborhoods. And it was interested in East Austin.

与此同时，奥斯汀正在努力解决该地区的城市化问题。作为部分解决方案，该市选择了沿着东六街集中发展，这是进入市中心的直接动脉，同时保留了北部和南部社区的住宅特色。

这个新制定的以交通为导向的走廊条例的意外后果是，第六街迅速成为一个峡谷，在60英尺的街道边缘，廉价的多户住宅建筑之间。

Concurrently, Austin was grappling with the gentrification of the area. As a partial solution, the city had opted to densify development along East Sixth Street – a direct artery into downtown – while preserving the residential character of the neighborhoods to the North and South. The unintended consequence of this newly minted transit-oriented corridor ordinance was that Sixth Street rapidly became a canyon between 60’ street edges of inexpensively built multi-family construction.

与第六街的新建筑相反，设计团队考虑了周围仓库的建筑和材料类型，以及Huston Tillotson大学(是一所历史悠久的黑人大学，可以俯瞰酒店)的砖石和混凝土结构。

砖石填充的混凝土结构唤起了邻里的历史，而不是诉诸于模仿的方式。一个半户外的餐厅重新利用了原有的砖石结构(现在通过厨房的形式与主要酒店相连接)，进一步将该综合体与它原来的东奥斯汀根源联系在一起。

In opposition to the new construction along Sixth, the design team looked to the building and material typologies that existed in the surrounding warehouses, as well as the masonry and concrete construction, found at Huston Tillotson University (a historically Black university that overlooks the hotel). The masonry-infilled concrete structure evokes the neighborhood history without resorting to mimesis. A semi-outdoor restaurant reuses the pre-existing masonry structure (now physically attached to the principal hotel by way of the kitchens) further tying the complex back to its original East Austin roots.

就其本身而言，Arrive希望有一个步行环境，首先与公共食品、饮料和零售场所呼应，然后才是住宿。它想要一个几乎压制了它作为酒店身份的建筑——它想要一个公共设施。

For its part, Arrive desired a pedestrian environment that spoke to public food, beverage, and retail establishments first and to lodging second. It wanted a building that almost suppressed its identity as a hotel – it wanted a public amenity.

对周边地区的长期影响还有待观察。不幸的是，新冠疫情和2月份德克萨斯寒冷的严寒让Arrive公司的业务中断了一段时间，但这些业务基本上已经全面恢复。

虽然可以说东奥斯汀并不真正需要一个77000平方英尺的酒店开发项目，但项目团队的工作是创造一个可能作为一个标志性建筑，让其他人知道这个地区的重要性，也是值得雄心壮志和长久发展的建筑。

The long-term impact on the neighborhood remains to be seen. Unfortunately, Covid 19 and the bitter February Texas freeze derailed Arrive’s operations for a beat, but those are largely back in full swing. While it can be argued that East Austin did not truly need a 77,000 sqf hotel development, the project team worked to produce a structure that might serve as a signpost to others that this neighborhood is important and worthy of ambitious and durable architecture.
