Douglas gardens IV & VI
Senior Living at Campus Scale

A campus has its own grammar — of scale, material, and color — and addition demands fluency. Douglas Gardens IV and VI extend an established senior housing complex in Pembroke Pines with two seven-story buildings that read as native to their context without defaulting to imitation. The existing campus palette is reinterpreted with heightened saturation, drawing forward a more contemporary register while maintaining chromatic continuity across the grounds. Where earlier structures carry metal rooflines, aluminum awnings and shading systems absorb that language into the new facades, anchoring the buildings in the family of forms around them.
