Whiting Residence

An existing, historic building in downtown Stevens Point, Wisconsin provides the site for the design of a memory care facility. Considerations for aging in place as well as the effects of Alzheimer’s disease inform the function. The history of the building and research of Alzheimer’s are utilized to develop a comfortable environment for seniors and enhance their quality of life. To create an impactful, engaging design the main level and lower level consist of ‘village’ spaces, while the upper level is resident rooms.
