oLiv Madison is a student housing project located at the corner of Gorham Street and State Street near the University of Wisconsin Campus in Madison. The project houses a mix of studio, one, two, four, and five-bed apartments. Interior amenities include a gaming and social lounge, meeting space, and a fitness center with steam and sauna rooms. Outdoor amenity areas are provided at the rooftops, including a pool, hot tub, and lounge spaces, all within extensively landscaped areas. The building is also activated along the street level with retail space. Some sustainable features include multiple levels of green roofs, rooftop solar panels, and electric vehicle charging stations.

The large scale of the building was broken down into several distinct massings, creating the appearance of a collection of buildings. The building envelope is clad in brick, metal panels and glazing, creating various unique facades with brick detailing complementing the surrounding buildings.
