Friendship House is a standalone memory care facility. It
represents the culmination of a vision to provide a home to residents
who need a supportive environment filled with engaging and
enriching experiences. It's a place
for residents to feel at home, where
the surroundings feel inviting
and safe, yet open and light. The
concept behind this project was
to have an open design featuring
floor-to-ceiling window walls that
enhance the natural light. Outdoor
courtyards and balconies provide
outdoor living spaces for residents
and encourage freedom of movement. The decor is intended to
stimulate the mind and senses. It is
sectioned into four neighborhoods,
each with its own unique theme
and color scheme. The entrance to
each side features a photography
art wall to coincide with each
neighborhood theme, which acts
as a cue for residents to distinguish the various areas. The colors
were selected to evoke different
emotions and the residents are
encouraged to wander throughout
the space. One area was designed
to feel energetic and lively, while
another was designed to give a
sense of calm. Natural and textural
finishes were selected to enhance
the surrounding mountain views
and landscapes. Each neighborhood features defined spaces for
cinema/media, meditative/spiritual functions, dining and activities,
and cooking and laundry. This is
a place for residents to continue
to live and to experience laughter
and joy, and a sense of wonder and
peace. It's a place to feel a sense of
value and self worth, and a place to
share these experiences with family, friends, and companions.
