Bethany+Village
Lindsborg, KS
Bethany+Village was rapidly outgrowing their existing facility, and the decision was made to add extensive new space. During the visioning phase of the project, it was decided that they want to double the size of the facility and enhance the functionality and homelike feel of the new resident units beginning in the corridor and continuing into the units. What ultimately came out of the design process was a 20,500 square foot, 22-unit addition which implemented exterior design elements into the corridors to create individual “front doors” for each unit. Upgraded materials were carried into the units to create a more homier feel. These materials included ceramic tile floors and walls in the restrooms and showers, solid surface countertops with undermount sinks in the kitchenettes, and a combination of luxury vinyl tile in the kitchenettes and tile carpeting in the living room and bedrooms. Rounding out the new addition are numerous seating areas for residents to meet, read, and socialize. A large multiunit resident laundry room and a community room with a full kitchen, drink bar, and restroom also serves as the facility’s storm shelter.
