HKS Austin released plans for an 80-storey, 1,035-feet-tall (315 metres) skyscraper called Wilson Tower, which will be wrapped in a brise soleil.

这座建筑位于奥斯汀城市中心的第五大道，占据了半个街区，塔楼的地面层通过混凝土支柱架空于人行道上。

塔楼位于裙楼之上，形态完整且平坦，结构的边缘设置有玻璃，两侧的窄边包裹着金属框架，该框架一直延伸到顶部。

Taking up a half-block location on 5th Street in downtown Austin, the tower will feature a raised pedestal that cantilevers over the ground-level walkways with concrete columns.
The tower itself will rise from the podium level and will be relatively flat with expansive glazing on the broad sides of the structure and a metal brise-soleil that wraps around the narrow sides, covering the rounded top.

HKS事务所的负责人Brad Wilkins说道：“对于这座Wilson塔楼，我们希望能够在空中住宅里设计一座全新的酒吧，我们相信这能够提升创意性和社区联系性。”

“塔楼有着室外露台和花园，同时还包裹着一层金属框架，它不仅能够遮挡日照，同时还能让结构更加坚固。”

“这种钢框架给建筑的每个楼层都带来了独特的遮阳效果和舒适的室外生活空间。”

"Our vision for Wilson Tower is to set a new bar in skyscraper residences for Austin that we believe will foster creativity and social connection," said HKS Austin principal Brad Wilkins.
"Along with welcoming outdoor terraces and gardens, the tower itself is wrapped in a brise soleil that offers protection from the hot Texas sun and wind while also providing structural strength."
"This brise soleil gives the building uniquely shaded and comfortable outdoor living spaces on every level," he continued.

建筑师认为，这是对于德州炎热夏季的应对策略，框架的投影能够在建筑的立面上构成不同的形态。

经典的竖向百叶应用于裙房之中，给室内起到了遮阳的效果，而塔楼的外部则覆盖着金属结构框架，这能够依据公寓的需求而改变轮廓形态。

According to the studio, the brise soleil is a specific response to the hot Texas summers. The shading will take on two different forms on the facade of the structure.
On the podium, classic vertical louvres will be used to shade the interiors, while the tower itself will be covered in a blocky metal structure that changes its profile depending on the needs of the apartments.

住宅塔楼由Wilson Capital开发，包含有450套公寓。

Wilson Capital公司的创始人Taylor Wilson说道：“我们相信沿着城市交通廊道增加设计密度的重要作用，这样能够适应城市快速的人口增长现状。”

建筑中包含有多种公寓，比如独立的工作室和四室公寓，同时裙房中设计有许多便利设施，比如地面层的餐厅、电影院、共享办公空间，以及健身房，在裙房屋面上则设置有游泳池。

Britt Design集团主要负责室内设计，而Nudge Design则负责景观设计。

The residential tower is being developed by Austin-based Wilson Capital, and will have 450 apartments.
"We believe it is important to add intentionally designed density along the city's transit corridors to accommodate the unprecedented level of population growth Austin is experiencing," said Wilson Capital founder Taylor Wilson.
Along with the variety of housing options, which span from studios to four-bedroom homes, the development will have amenities in the podium. These include a ground-floor restaurant, movie theatre, coworking spaces and a fitness centre, and the top of the podium will be a pool deck.
Britt Design Group will be in charge of the interiors while Nudge Design will carry out the landscaping work on the property.

近期奥斯丁公布了一系列超高层摩天大楼，许多项目都在努力争夺最高的殊荣，在9月份，Kohn Pedersen Fox设计的一座1022英尺（约312米）的摩天大楼也破土动工，这座建筑横穿了一条河流。

HKS事务所于1939年成立于达拉斯，后来在全球也设置了多个办公场所，该事务所近期的项目还有位于好莱坞的创意综合体。

A number of supertall skyscrapers have recently been announced in Austin, many vying for the title of Texas' tallest building. In September Kohn Pedersen Fox broke ground on Waterline, a 1,022 feet tall (312 metres) skyscraper on the river that runs through Austin.
HKS was founded in Dallas in 1939 and has since opened a number of offices in the United States and internationally. Recent projects by the studio in the United States include a creative-complex development in Hollywood.
