At 301 Congress, the design vision was to bring greenery into the heart of a multi-tenant office tower in downtown Austin. The goal was to integrate biophilic elements into shared lobbies, corridors, and gathering spaces in a way that complements the building’s sleek architecture while softening its edges. Greenery serves as a unifying thread, enhancing the tenant and visitor experience by grounding the environment in a sense of vitality and connection to nature.
Green Oasis collaborated with the architectural and property teams to curate a cohesive palette of planters and plantings tailored to the building’s modern aesthetic. Our horticulturalists and design team selected species and placement strategies that balance sculptural presence with long-term performance.
Moss walls were integrated into a transitional corridor, creating moments of discovery and contrast against the warm wood finishes. Across high-traffic areas, modern Vivo Collection planters anchor lush greenery, providing scale, rhythm, and texture while maintaining ease of maintenance in a commercial setting.
