1101 K街的位置在市中心的一个独特的位置：这个区域的人行道扩展到50英尺宽，使得有可能做一个广场和花园的区域，而不只是传统的街景。

设计利用该地区的大量行人为住户提供有用的空间，为建筑物的零售商店和餐馆的用户提供灵活的公共空间，并为公众提供一个令人感到兴奋的地方。该项目还探索了高度城市化环境中的环境管理的先进方法，利用膨胀的下层土穹顶和连接根部开沟，以提供能够维持大树冠树和混合种植的土壤条件。组织成一组弯曲的形式，种植和雕塑结合该建筑的入口和户外餐厅座位的网站。这些形式，清晰可辨的建筑物上面的居民，他们的方式穿过树林和灯光的树丛，鼓励蜿蜒的行人路线，除了提供一个庇护，亲密的用餐体验。

The site of 1101 K Street occupies a unique location in the downtown: the sidewalk in this area expands to 50-feet wide, making it possible to make a plaza and garden for the area and not just the customary streetscape.

The design takes advantage of the large pedestrian population of the area to provide a useful space for tenants, flexible public space for users of the building’s retail shops and restaurants and a sensorily exciting place for the public. This project also explores advanced methods of environmental stewardship in highly-urbanized settings, utilizing expansive below-grade soil vaults and connective root trenching to provide soil conditions capable of sustaining large canopy trees and mixed plantings. Organized into a set of sinuous forms, plantings and sculpture unite the site with the building’s entrance and outdoor restaurant seating. These forms, legible to building occupants above, weave their way through a grove of trees and lights and encourage meandering pedestrian routes in addition to providing a sheltered, intimate dining experience.
