Liz Lambert is “the avatar of cool for the inn crowd’s in crowd.” Thirteen years ago, Liz Lambert bought a seedy motel on South Congress Avenue, in Austin, and transformed it into the sleek, modern, high-end, achingly fashionable Hotel San José—an early sign of life injected into what is now the Capital City’s famously vibrant SoCo district. She’s done the same in Marfa, Houston, and San Antonio.
Lambert will also be hosting graduate students from the Applied Craft and Design program to El Cosmico (Marfa) in March 2014.
