awarded healthcare projects for seniors in Florida.
BOCA RATON, FLORIDA – April 25, 2011 - Senior Wellness Specialists has been selected to provide Universal Design schemes for two seniors’ projects in Florida. The first contract is for the $45 million Riviera Nursing Home project, located in Miami-Dade County (Coral Gables). The five story, 76,000 square foot structure with 135 rooms will house approximately 240 patients. Located in North Central Florida, Marion County (Ocala), the second contract is for Fairmont Park Senior Life Care Campus, a continuum of care complex consisting of two buildings, each with over 80,000 square feet. This $27 million project will accommodate 114 residents in the assisted-living building and 96 residents in the independent-living building which will have 7,000 square feet of medical/wellness area.
Fairmont Park, located in Ocala is best know for its rolling hills and horses reminiscent of California's Napa Valley. The furnishings for this complex will energize and set one at ease with a combination of dark woods, stucco walls, stone, oversized iron chandeliers and a clay floor. A terra cotta tiled roof completes the setting of a Tuscan Villa retreat.
The design work for The New Riviera Nursing home in Coral Gables, FL. has already begun. This project was inspired by architect Addison Mizner whose revival style interpretations left an indelible stamp on South Florida that architects continue to draw upon. The styling of the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables Fl. was a major influence for The New Rivera's color scheme. A pallet of gold's, honey, paprika and green accents create an old world charm with chic contemporary comforts.
