24 Hours in Austin

 

I said this before but Texas is way up there as one of my favorite states to visit. It's so diverse in landscape and local culture and I always have a fun unique experience when I'm down there. We went to Dallas for our friends Carolina and Andrews wedding in October and tagged on an extra day in Austin. I hadn't been in a while and Austin's always a good time. But truth is that most of the times I was out there I was either working or there for SXSW, this was the first time I was there just to chill and hang. So instead of hitting up bars and bbq the focus of this trip became exploration and art.

If you ever find yourself in Austin these are some places you must hit up. In no particular order.

We started this particular trip off at the Contemporary in Austin which has two locations, one right downtown and the other a bit outside of the city with sculptures and installations on a large outdoor property.

This was pretty great. At the downtown location they had an installation by Do Ho Suh. It was a replica of the house he grew up in made with wires and fabric.
