First impressions happen in milliseconds. Art makes them count. Environmental psychology research indicates that first impressions form within?100 milliseconds?(0.1 seconds!) of entering a space. Visual elements like color and artwork disproportionately influence judgments. In multifamily development, the right entry sets the tone for the entire property. When you invest in impactful art, you make meaning for residents, turning "house" to "home."

Up the stairs ?? and up the charts! ??? ?? At HillTop student apartments, we've designed art that turns each floor into a chapter of Austin's music story. Lower levels feature vintage gramophones and hole-in-the-wall clubs. Upper floors showcase more modern tech like cassettes, and legendary stages like Stubb's! This vertical artistic journey connects students with Austin's cultural heritage, and brings the musician's path to fame to life across common spaces.

46 Million people have viewed this video! It's from a night no one could believe... Mr Doodle painted this 50'x 60' mural for 14-hours straight! It was in Downtown Austin during SXSW. The crowds cheered. The result was pure joy! And the joy spread, to 46 MILLION people. That's the power of strategically placed, awesome public art. Social media and word of mouth extend an art installation's impact. For building owners, being 'instagrammable' expands your brand recognition far beyond your physical location. There is a 77% greater chance that someone will recommend a location if it has art. Our emotional connection to art is in our DNA, and the data is clear. Art is a people attractor that leads to more foot traffic and higher sales! Where is your favorite mural or public art piece? Please ?? repost to share a Daily Dopamine Dose of Art!

Take a look at my latest project! It's incredible to see how much student living has evolved since my time in college.

Union on 24th, West Campuses' newest student living, is elevated with bold artwork that complements architecture and interiors by Greystar. In the common areas, we commissioned 3 vibrant works — Two unique abstractions on panel, and one piece that uses real neon lettering - to deliver that true 'Austin' vibe and resonate with students who call this space home.
