Themed environments lend a level of continuity vital to Long Term Care. The Village of Avon discovered this firsthand when it transformed its continuum of care community into a Town Square that reflects the beauty of the surrounding Indiana landscape. Avon's welcoming, pioneer-inspired aesthetic is highlighted by building facades that open into common areas and a "front porch" that fosters resident socialization. To create a successful, working senior living environment, Avon's themed design had to blend seamlessly with conventional design elements – without sacrificing function. From designing unobtrusive nurse stations to providing the comforts of home, the ingenuity of Aptura's design turned Avon’s dream into a reality.
