To achieve a natural and modern aesthetic, the space highlights wide common areas that welcome plenty of natural lighting and ADA features that will help the residents enjoy their home and age-in-place.

These spaces are featured in an open plan with the goal to welcome natural light and provide spaciousness in the residence. Natural stones and woods are utilized throughout the flooring, millwork, and furniture.

Space Plan

The spatial relationship of the residence incorporates universal design which allows easy transition from one area to another. The goal of the residence is to create a comfortable and accessible living space for the clients and their guests by incorporating all of their preferences in a higher end complex.

As for the layout of the space, the foyer connects with a hallway that leads to more private areas such as the bedrooms and the private studio. The foyer also has open entrances to major social spaces such as the dining area, kitchen, and living area. Some areas, such as the foyer and living areas, include recessed ceilings for more lighting and depth to the space.
