PROJECT STATEMENT:
Stella Maris is a high-end aged care facility designed to inspire nostalgia through an elevated use of Modernist design elements. Accommodating our elderly demographic who lived through an era of mid-century design, this residence will instigate a comforting, homily feel, enhancing the quality of life of its residents. With many fearful of their future living in aged care, Stella Maris strives to lead a progressive change towards the design of aged care facilities. Many aspects of this project reflect the most iconic modernist designers of the past. The immersive colour palette draws from the surrounding landscape of the site and works to highlight the incredible coastal location.
