outside each building. Residents are encouraged
to walk to shade structures, to the adult daycare
for activities, or to the café for coffee with a family
member. Adult and child care share a patio with
movable glass walls on both sides to allow for intergenerational
activities. The interaction is natural
and rewarding-as the caregivers note, " children
don't see dementia. " Throughout, low walls provide
inobtrusive boundaries to allow views to adjacent
areas while preserving safety.
To accomplish its educational mission, the
campus can host large teaching events without
disrupting residents. The podium parking structure
is below grade and has a separate entrance from
family entrances at each of the buildings. The
parking structure is hidden behind landscaped
berms and stone-faced walls that form a gently
sloping base around the project. The buildings
look like one- or two-story houses from the family
entrances and neighborhood.
Material, lighting, and acoustic choices reinforce
the idea that this is the residents' home. The Great
Room in assisted living recalls the mid-century

wood ceilings, and minimal detailing lend a

acoustic insulation to dampen echoes and reverberation,
and the building has a circadian lighting
control system to help manage resident sleep. The
result is a comfortable, therapeutic environment
that contributes to the care of the residents.
