Urbannizer Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Boutique condo project. https://www.facebook.com/miradorgroup/timeline Here is one of our most recent condo designs: THE PARK MODERNE, The expression of volume, emphasis on balance, and importance of views emerge together to create the Park Moderne. The building’s structure cultivates an urban sophistication by introducing a refined and distinctive architectural masterpiece. And I think this was the second design they were considering: Our Second Concept for a new Boutique Condo project: ORIGIN: With roots anchored in Houston’s history the Origin represents the melting pot of history and evolution that is the modern city of Houston we all know.

Purdueenginerd Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 first one reminds of an IKEA bookshelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrose1100 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Both are great designs. Here's to hoping it's in the loop, maybe off of Montrose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminare Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Other than the name, I like it. Simple, clean, and finally something a little more contemporary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstontexasjack Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't think they'd go up in the area, but I also think these would look really neat at that plot catty-corner to where the Southmore is going up in the Museum District. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monarch Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 very very very florida, or maybe even galveston. however, are they really houston? not sure..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud713 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Design they "WERE" considering? So is this fantasy? I agree on loving to see them near Montrose or the Museum District. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moore713 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Looks like it would fit the museum distinct best, condos design with a artist slate would only add to the museum area feel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminare Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Why only the Museum district? This is what Midtown and Uptown should look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curbur Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm not a huge fan of the first rendering, but I feel this is one of those mockups that may actually look better in real life than digitally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillip_white Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm digging both of these designs, but this one takes the cake. Reminds me of something from the Life After People show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avossos Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Love both renderings. If done cheap, would be disastrous though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timoric Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Maybe it will be a Plyscraper as featured on CNN.com http://edition.cnn.com/2015/03/25/tech/wooden-skyscrapers-plyscraper/index.html Love both renderings.

monarch Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 timoric, for god's sake, i have been wanting to inquire, but i have been a bit shy. just who is that gorgeous / adorable little angel located within your avatar? if he is yours (and i assume that he is indeed a he, since he is surrounded by blue) then please accept my hearty congratulations. should he not be yours, then i shall continue to be shy from now on.....

WshfulThnkn Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Very nice designs. Especially the first one. Great improvement over the midrise multifamily projects developers in Houston have been spitting out the last several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobruss Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I liked both also, but couldn't help but imagine a raging waterfall, at the height of one of Houston's infamous floods. Water cascading down to the street below on those setbacks. Film at 11:00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtterlyUrban Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I don't appreciate the aesthetic of the first rendering at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arche_757 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Umm.... I ...uh... think these are conceptual?! Based on what I saw on their website. That and there's no way that the first building has any HVAC/structure etc. taken into account based on shallowness of the floor depth between floors. Could be they are pumping air and have run plumbing etc. around a core? But that seems kind of odd. Few other condos have that. Limits having a spa tub or shower with a 12th floor view of the skyline! Seems very conceptual to me. Could be wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
