THE SHARED VISION:
Rebuild after a devastating tornado with a master
plan that reflects the program’s philosophy.
Recovery at Project Turnabout is spoken of as
a whole new world.
THE INNOVATIVE DESIGN: The design
utilizes the natural environment and residential
scale in creating a lifestyle environment which
enhances feelings of self-esteem and well-being.
Emphasis on rock outcroppings, and the restoration
of native prairie grass and cactus graphically
illustrate that life can be a new world, different
and beautiful.
< This facility
is built on a residential scale around rock and native
prairie. The walkway windows provide natural light as
you journey to dining, activities and lectures.
< The core area
in each "house" is the common living area.
Treatment is centered in the "house."
< The spiritual
center is a unique space designed for meditation and
intimate treatment sessions.
<Wood trim and
residential detail create a medical facility with
a non-institutional feeling.
< A flexible
lecture room provides comfortable space for daily
speakers and videos.
