A senior living landscape that balances safety, autonomy, and meaningful outdoor experiences for residents at all levels of care

This project represents a comprehensive approach to outdoor amenity design for senior living. Every element was selected to support the physical, cognitive, and emotional needs of residents at all levels of care, creating a layered landscape experience that offers autonomy, comfort, and connection.

The rooftop amenity for the long-term memory care floor extends these same principles in a fully secure setting. Thoughtful planting, sensory elements, and intuitive pathways create a safe and engaging environment that allows residents to enjoy the outdoors with confidence and ease.

The result is an amenity landscape that supports connection, wellness, and daily engagement, providing residents with spaces to gather, relax, and experience meaningful outdoor moments.
