Studio 16:19

What Studio 16:19 does

Studio 16:19 is a privately held planning and landscape architecture firm headquartered in Round Rock, Texas, founded in August 2011 by Angela Baker and Brent A. Baker. The firm delivers four integrated service lines — Landscape Architecture, Planning, Irrigation Design, and Branding and Signage — covering site planning, schematic design, construction documentation, construction phase services, master planning, land use planning, sustainable irrigation systems (including rainwater harvesting, drip irrigation, and "smart water" controls), and wayfinding/signage master plans. Its technical differentiator is the bundling of these four capabilities under one roof, allowing integrated delivery from concept through construction for outdoor "people spaces."

The firm serves a horizontal mix of client segments including municipal and parks/recreation agencies (City of Pflugerville, City of Round Rock, Williamson County ESD 3), K-12 school districts (Del Valle ISD, Wimberley ISD), private real estate developers (Endeavor Real Estate Group, Burke Real Estate Group), faith-based organizations (The Fellowship Church), and commercial operators (Meanwhile Brewing Co.). Notable projects include the 212-acre Wilbarger Creek Park, the 280-acre Belterra Village mixed-use center, the 175-acre Chandler Creek Business Park, and the Blue Hole Primary School — the first school in Texas with an integrated One Water rainwater collection and reuse system. Branding and wayfinding is a recurring cross-sell across these project types.

The business model is project-based professional services billing, with quote-based pricing that is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales through direct, relationship-driven engagements — Studio 16:19 explicitly positions itself as a "trusted advisor and preferred consultant" — supplemented by a referral network of co-developing architecture and engineering firms (Hodges Architecture, Pfluger Architects, HLY Architecture, Big Red Dog/WGI). The firm operates exclusively in Central Texas with no disclosed external funding, no acquisition history, and founder-ownership retained since inception. Marketing is portfolio-driven via website case studies, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, and community philanthropy (supporting 63 non-profits).
