Vista at Councill Square

Huntsville, Alabama

Our client set out to create attractive luxury residences for the discerning and successful transplants that are driving the city’s current development boom. Given the large influx of people, the primary challenge was designing a large building that could also feel comfortable and intimate.

The resulting design combines the Texas wrap construction methodology with courtyards to break up the massing. We also created several feature moments to line the procession of spaces with interest and points of visual intrigue. These include the entry itself, which is a dramatic combination of glass and bronze metal that serves as an impressive portal to the residences within.

The development itself will be a sophisticated take on modern materials: textured stucco with metal panels inset around the windows, as well as jewel tones in strategic locations for a pop of elegance.

When delivered in 2025, it will bring 332 units to the growing downtown area.
