Post Falls Idaho State Veterans Home

The design intent was to create a home-like feeling that is both comfortable and inviting and encourages well-being. With a community center anchoring the new Veterans Home, our small house concept neighborhoods line either side. With every home, we design, activity and inclusion is at the front. Overall, the new home utilizes materials that complement the existing architecture of the town of Post Falls in order to present itself as an inviting environment for Veterans, their families, and the community. Each neighborhood is further subdivided into four household wings each supporting 16 private resident rooms, dedicated dining, kitchen, den, sitting lounges, living and outdoor patio areas. The philosophy of the interior design emphasizes strong connections to nature and simplicity of form to create tranquil settings for a meaningful life. The style is characterized as elegantly understated with clean lines and simple ornamentation. The color palette and finish materials reflect the natural environment through earth tones and rich accents.
