EFA DESIGN SHOWCASE
MEMORY CARE

Parks' Place Memory Care PLYMOUTH, MINN.
Submitted by: Mohagen Hansen Architecture | Interiors WAYZATA, MINN., AND
Gordon James Construction MAPLE PLAIN, MINN.
A sound building exterior of
the finest construction craftsmanship, architectural details,
and a beautiful interior concept
created this memory care facility
that looks and operates much
like a custom home. This single
level, barrier-free building was
exclusively designed for people
with Alzheimer's and other forms
of dementia. The overall goal was
to recognize residents' abilities,
offer dignity and promote respect
within an environment that

allows them to participate in meaningful and fulfilling activities while
helping them to retain life skills
and feel a sense of purpose. Upon
entering, residents and guests are
greeted by a grand entry with views
to the family kitchen and center
island seating, formal dining area,
comfortable living room and large,
window-lined sunroom.
Well-organized spaces, familiar
furniture, and bright lighting make
navigating the space comfortable
and easy. The seamless integration of technical spaces allows staff
to remain engaged with residents
throughout the day. Unique to this
facility is the emphasis placed on
providing activities like those that
take place within the home; making
cookies with family members in
the centralized kitchen is just one
example. The nurse stations which
are referred to as " health hubs " are
strategically located within each
neighborhood, making them visible
and accessible. Interior windows
between functions maintain connectivity, promote safety, and allow
daylight into spaces that are often
buried within the building core. At
all times throughout the day and
night, residents have access to common and living areas, encouraging
independence, opportunities, and
dignity for all.
