Client Need

An area for patients to enjoy the outdoors and relax or mingle with other patients and healthcare staff.

Inspiration

Original design was done by GRAEF. DJFLCI was hired to tweak the design and install the project.

Favorite Element

My favorite part of this design is the larger of the two circles where the sculpture and pergola are located because so many design elements work together.

Biggest Challenge

Working with other contractors to plan and schedule work.

Proudest Accomplishment

The total transformation of the site. When we started the entire area was just grass and now it is a beautiful garden for all to enjoy.

Tough Moment

We had to work around a large amount of utilities on a tight site which caused last minute design revisions.

Fond Memory

The Aurora staff and DJFLCI crews were so wonderful to work with and everyone shared a mutual excitement to see the end result.

Urban Outdoors
This outdoor “library room” is a breath of fresh air for the community. The sunken amphitheater, ADA ramps, West Coast Shade structures and two small patios encourage both large and small gatherings making it the perfect meeting space.
