Friendship Village of Dublin
Commons Renovations & Addtion

The challenge offered by the owner was to substantially update the appearance of the community entrance and public areas of an exclusive 1970's retirement community. A new mansion-style entry was designed to give the original non-descript modern facility an inviting focal point and residential appeal.

The addition includes, on the first floor, the main lobby with a fireplace, a billiards room, offices, a tastefully renovated stairwell, and a highly-detailed library/boardroom with a fireplace. The second floor, a multi-level dining room extending over the porte cochere below, features coffered and sloped ceilings, exterior balconies and a two-sided fireplace. The extensive use of wood moulding and rich residential detailing throughout the new and updated existing areas creates an inviting atmosphere for residents and visitors.
