Senior Living
Denver, CO
Bordering beautiful Windsor Lake in the heart of Denver; this senior living residence speaks to the young at heart with amenities to suit every whim by providing a hotel-like experience. These 'forever young' residents can enjoy the concierge service, wellness spa and fitness, lakeside pool and gardens, a bistro turned bar, a multitude of lounge spaces, and a touchdown office and conference room. As these residents progress from working professionals into truly needing assisted living, the space is set to transform with them. The catering kitchen can be easily modified into a commercial kitchen as their residents age with the building.
Modern finishes and timeless design choices reflect that of a empty nester looking to downsize by brushing aside the 'typical' assisted living stereotype. Units will have a more personal feel with floating shelves and desks, large open islands to host family and friends, shaker cabinets, elegant lighting and plenty of space to make that transition easier. The building focuses on ensuring lines of sight throughout while not "feeling watched" by incorporating stunning accents such as a 2-story greenwall, windows at the end of each corridor, a water feature, and views of the lake to the East and mountains to the West.
