Case Study: Hines transforms Texas Tower into the office of the future with PDR

Hines renovates 22,000 SF Texas Tower with PDR

Hines, one of the largest privately held real estate investors in the world, faced the challenge of transforming a 47-story downtown Houston office tower into an extraordinary space that would attract and retain future tenants. They partnered with design and architecture vendor PDR to clarify a new vision and personify the office of the future, balancing practical budget concerns with the anticipated desires of an evolving workforce.

PDR collaborated with Hines to design innovative tenant amenities that exude both functionality and friendliness. The solution included a renovated sky lobby with whimsical lighting and lounge-style seating, a state-of-the-art health center, and additional co-working spaces. By transcending traditional office design, PDR helped create an environment that fully supports digitally-driven business while enhancing the overall tenant experience and satisfaction.
