Port Orange Rehabilitation
This stroke rehabilitation center provides residents with a comforting, temporary home that aids in healing and recovery.
This is achieved by incorporating evidence-based research into the design, focusing on the coexistence of patient and staff needs. Key elements of this design include utilizing natural light, integrating the surrounding Florida biome, using neutral and relaxing finishes and textures, and ensuring accessibility and flexibility for both patients and staff. For this project, we worked in teams of three to develop our design.
