About the Design
While much of the emphasis and beauty of Discovery Green is focused on its beautiful outdoor setting, great care and purpose was taken in the construction of the buildings, including The Grove and The Lake House. The buildings were designed from nature’s point of view, with simple and honest forms and an abundance of glass, allowing visitors to look through the buildings and remain connected with the landscape beyond.
About the Architects
Lawrence Speck, former dean of the University of Texas School of Architecture and practicing architect with PageSoutherlandPage, and his team designed both restaurants, as well as the Alkek Building. Speck, who also designed Bergstrom Airport in Austin, Texas, was selected as one of the top 100 architects in the world by Architectural Digest in 1991.
Milton Architects designed the interiors under the direction of Schiller Del Grande's Candice Schiller.
