For my thesis I decided to design
an assisted living facility. The
two main goals I want to accomplish in this thesis is to design a Gold LEED
certified building and also focus on how bringing nature into the living
environment improves the residents experience. What I’ve notice thus far throughout my research is that
many gathering spaces inside assisted living facilities are not as pleasing as
they could be. I feel that if
these spaces were brightened up and brought more of the outside environment
into them that the residents would enjoy the space much more. The graphic below illustrates how the
difference between the indoors and outdoors can change the mood of a
resident. Being stuck inside all day can be very boring, but if you bring the
environment into the living space, it provides a more pleasing and enjoyable
space to live.
