奥斯汀Proper酒店位于奥斯汀中部的Seaholm区,南侧是Ladybird湖,北侧是市场区。当地人常在共和广场,奥斯汀中央图书馆和奥斯汀市政厅活动,城市顶部空间则掩映在Colorad河流两岸的绿地中。酒店距奥斯汀-Bergstrom国际机场仅14.4公里。酒店地处第二大街繁华的商业和文化中心,酒店设置在一栋32层高的当代建筑中,是附近最热门的新地标。与大楼的现代设计风格相对,酒店的室内由引领世界时尚潮流的设计师Kelly Wearstler操刀,从当地的历史和工艺风建筑中汲取灵感,大量使用新艺术和工艺美术图案,与传统细木工艺、纹理和材料相搭配。

Austin Proper Hotel is located in the Seaholm District, set between Ladybird Lake to the south and Market District to the north in central Austin. The locale plays host to such attractions as Republic Square, the Austin Central Library, and Austin City Hall, while urban headspace can be found in the abundance of green space along both banks of the Colorad River.  Distance from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport: 14.4 km. Set amid the buzzing commercial and cultural creativity of the 2nd Street District, Austin Proper Hotel emerges as the neighborhood’s hottest new landmark housed within a contemporary 32-story high-rise. In charming contrast to the modernity of the new-build construction, the design concept of Austin Proper Hotel draws inspiration from the area’s historic, Craftsman-style architecture. Conceived by international design tastemaker Kelly Wearstler, the interiors incorporate Art Noveau and Arts and Crafts motifs, alongside traditional joinery techniques, textures, and materials.

进入酒店大堂,映入眼帘的是一座木制楼梯,铺设古典地毯,点缀以当地陶艺家Rick Van Dyke制作的陶罐,巨大的灯具致敬奥斯汀标志性的霓虹标识。酒店公共空间和客房全部使用当地生产的榆木,在当代建筑的骨架中创造出经久不衰的温暖和亲密。

Upon entering the lobby, guests are greeted by an imposing wooden staircase covered in vintage carpets and dotted with pots by local ceramicist Rick Van Dyke, while an oversized light feature pays homage to Austin’s iconic neon signs. Locally-sourced elm wood abounds throughout the hotel’s public spaces and guestrooms, creating a sense of timeless warmth and intimacy within the contemporary bones of the building.

244间客房和套房的设计融合陶瓷和艺术品,包括艳丽的托盘、Van Dyke定制的手工橱柜镶嵌瓷砖、以及Magda Saveg制作的繁复的艺术墙面。硬木地板和采自Texan的石灰华形成有机的背景,衬托出由Wearstler设计的富有质感的家具以及Fili D’oro和Bellino的尼龙床品。大理石装饰的浴室设有金属质感的灯具和宽敞的雨淋花洒,便利设施由Aesop提供,浴袍则由Kelly Wearstler x Parachute Home定制。为了满足Proper展现当地特色的要求,酒店的菜肴和饮品与McGuire Moorman Hospitalit合作开放,该团队是当地标志性餐厅,如Elizabeth Street咖啡厅和Clark’s的幕后英雄。一层的孔雀地中海餐厅提供以色列和土耳其风味的餐品,池边的Piscina是一家墨西哥餐厅,露台则由木材烧烤和海鲜酒吧组成。15层的屋顶泳池带来极致的时尚城市休闲体验,游客可以一边享受小杯龙舌兰酒,一遍欣赏不受遮拦的城市景观。

The 244 rooms and suites are defined by an eclectic mix of ceramics and artwork, including tchotchke trays, hand-raked cabinet inlay tiles commissioned from Van Dyke, and intricate string wall art by Magda Saveg. The use of hardwood flooring and travertine sourced from Texan quarries creates an organic backdrop to tactile furnishings designed by Wearstler and luxurious beds covered in Fili D’oro and Bellino linens. Marble-clad bathrooms are illuminated by metallic sconces and feature spacious rain showers, amenities by Aesop and exclusive bathrobes from Kelly Wearstler x Parachute Home. In keeping with Proper’s commitment to what’s good on local ground, the hotel’s food and beverage concept was created in collaboration with McGuire Moorman Hospitality, the team behind iconic neighborhood restaurants such as Elizabeth Street Café and Clark’s. The ground-floor Peacock Mediterranean Grill serves dishes inspired by Israeli and Turkish classics, while the poolside La Piscina is a Mexican-inspired restaurant and terrace complete with wood-burning grill and raw bar. A fifth-floor rooftop pool deck offers the ultimate in chic urban relaxation with panoramic city views and small-batch tequila on tap.

在新冠病毒的影响下,酒店团队进一步加强了他们的社群理念,提供在Proper工作的服务,将奥斯汀、旧金山和圣莫妮卡的酒店套房转变成流动工作空间。此外,酒店还与Swift Fit合作,每周在屋顶上开展瑜伽课程,并且为客人提供单车服务。

Further strengthening their community impact—especially in light of Covid-19—the team is offering Industrious at Proper, a program which sees suites turned into fluid workspaces at the group’s Austin, San Fransisco, and Santa Monica locations. Additionally, a partnership with Swift Fit means weekly rooftop yoga sessions as well as the availability of complimentary bikes for guests.
