Project Overview
Set within the cultural and climatic landscape of Palm Coast Florida, this multi-family assisted living, independent living, and concierge residential community reinterprets Florida’s coastal architectural lineage as a contemporary environment for longevity, wellness, and social connection. This project proposes a new typology for assisted and independent living—one rooted in choice, dignity, and connection. Residents are offered a range of spatial experiences, from intimate garden niches to lively social plazas, allowing daily life to unfold at a personal pace. The architecture supports wellness not through overt medicalization, but through spatial generosity, sensory richness, and strong ties to place.
the project draws from Palm Coast's architectural history: Mediterranean Revival, Art Deco optimism, and Florida’s tradition of climate-responsive modernism—to form a hybrid language that is both timeless and forward-looking.

The ground level is intentionally porous, integrating cafés, restaurants, and concierge services as extensions of the public realm. These amenities activate the site throughout the day, blurring the boundary between residents and the surrounding community and positioning the project as a neighborhood anchor rather than a secluded enclave.
At the heart of the project is a sequence of shaded courtyards, loggias, and garden rooms, inspired by the Mediterranean cloisters. These spaces function as social condensers; cool, shaded environments that encourage casual encounters, outdoor dining, and moments of rest. Water features, lush planting, and filtered daylight establish a sensory rhythm that responds to Florida’s heat while fostering calm and orientation.
