00. E —RT is a Dallas based architecture and interiors practice. We design homes, hospitality spaces, adaptive reuse projects, and places that feel rooted in their surroundings and shaped by the people who use them.
Every project starts the same way, by listening. We spend time understanding the site, the building, the people, and the constraints before putting pen to paper. The goal isn't to impose an idea. It's to uncover the one that already belongs.
We work closely with engineers, fabricators, contractors, and craftspeople from the beginning, making sure ideas hold up as well in construction as they do on paper. Depending on the project, that can mean shaping everything from the building itself to the interiors, furniture, lighting, and the details that make a place feel soulful.
We care about buildings that age well. Regenerative strategies and thoughtful material choices aren't an afterthought. They're integral to the design process from the very beginning.
The remodel of Rosy’s Grocer introduces a new neighborhood food hub that highlights specialty items and local products. A strategic kitchen expansion supports their growing food program, centered on fresh sandwiches available for dine-in or takeout. The design maintains clarity in circulation while reimagining the use of space to maximize flexibility for the store’s evolving trajectory. The result is a modern neighborhood grocer that balances efficiency with warmth, providing a communal space that celebrates Austin’s local gritty contemporary character.
