In an effort to expand on-campus housing and accommodate the demolition of some aging facilities, Texas State University selected Kirksey to design a new 612-bed residence hall. Designed in a Spanish Colonial style to reflect the current master plan guidelines and surrounding campus vernacular, the facility features two identical wings consisting of residential communities that group (four) two-bedroom units with a one-bedroom unit and a community bathroom.
