The resulting design enhances the community aesthetically and functionally, providing residents with updated spaces for socializing, and enabling staff to respond to specific resident needs more effectively. RDG's design for the main lobby and reception area transforms a poorly lit, closed-off area into an open space that incorporates natural daylight, decorative fixtures and soft seating to evoke a warm, inviting aesthetic. A critical component of the design converts an existing large meeting space and adjacent storage room into a dedicated dining space for assisted living residents. The new space is closer to the assisted living apartments, helping reduce the distance residents must travel to get there and is intentionally designed with enhanced acoustics, making it easier for residents to interact. RDG completed the renovation in collaboration with AG Architecture and SCOPOS Hospitality Group.
