Environments for Aging - Spring 2024 - 32
EFORE LAUNCHING the first
senior living property for their
company, Anthemion Senior
Lifestyles, husband-and-wife
team Bodo and Tamilyn Liesenfeld
spent 3 years researching
memory care therapies,
technologies, and building designs
in Europe and the U.S. In
November 2022, they opened
The Cordwainer-a two-story,
54-unit memory-care community tucked into
a picturesque wooded area in Norwell, Mass.
The Liesenfelds were looking to offer something
unique to New England and unusual for
the States in general. Within The Cordwainer,
designed by The Architectural Team (TAT;
Chelsea, Mass.), residents are surrounded by
biophilic elements, serene colors, and a Scandinavian
residential aesthetic.
The community's layout encourages socialization,
and its immersive, dementia-specific
programming focuses on engaging all the senses.
" When we visited this thickly wooded property,
we thought it was the perfect setting, " says
Tamilyn Liesenfeld, a 30-year veteran of the senior
living business. " It's all about stimulating
the mind. Our building has a higher percentage
of its total gross area devoted to common
areas [than typically found]. You walk into the
first-floor neighborhood and there's this beautiful
sensory garden full of trees and plants and
flowers. It's something special. "
The double-height entry
and lobby provide an
immediate sense of the role
biophilic design plays in The
Cordwainer. Warm wood
materials climb the walls and
envelop the ceiling, with a
striking moss wall providing a
lively focal point.
