West Coast Allegiance - Amenities
This permanent supportive housing for homeless veterans was designed with a focus on accessibility, mental health, physical health, and inclusive design. The project was split into two sections, West Coast Allegiance was first then Patriot Shores was second.
West Coast Allegiance: Was the designing of the community area, my teammate, Kelsey Westrick, and I were challenged to design amenities that would improve the wellbeing of residents. Amenities included a therapy center, art room, game room, and fitness area.
Patriot Shores: Was the design of micro apartments, the design process focused on how to make the apartments accessible, feel like there are individual spaces (rooms) and fall under the micro category. In the end apartments ranged from 300-400 square feet.
