Pacific Gardens Assisted Living
Santa Clara, CA
This assisted living project
features a double height, skylit entry lobby. On-site
services provide care for the physically frail residents.
About half of the 80 dwelling units are reserved for
individuals suffering from Alzheimer's.

A
delightful interior courtyard is bisected by a low wall and trellis and
provides security and familiarity for the residents. The simple
shed-roofed forms and familiar exterior materials are evocative of
the spirit of home.
