Design and drawings are recently complete for the Elmwood Adult Day Care on Elmwood Avenue in Providence. The Owner, who currently owns the building next door, is looking to expand his business by connecting the two buildings and providing extended care services to the area. While maintaining the exterior shell of the building, the design involves providing space for 100 occupants with necessary amenities and accessibility. The exterior of the building will be cleaned and painted, and have its windows replaced. While holding to a strict budget, SPM treated the interiors through subtle wall height changes and a careful use of color to create a “village-within-a-building” feeling to assist the elderly occupants via both visual stimulation and to give each area it’s own unique identity. Lighting for the facility is also carefully selected and designed to maximize brightness levels needed by the occupants. Three new skylights compliment the lighting design providing natural light during the day and reducing energy consumption.
