ST. FRANCIS

Design Central helped select finishes and furniture for their new residential treatment facility. Due to the special needs of the patients and staff in this facility special care had to be taken with the selections to ensure the safety of all users. The artwork in the facility was also selected and installed by Design Central. All artwork and furniture in the residential spaces are either heavy enough to deter movement or installed with anti-tamper hardware.

In addition to the main campus, Saint Francis also hosts multiple transitional houses. Both the Girls’ Cottage and the Boys’ Dorm are home to individuals phasing back into a smaller and steadier environment. The goal was to find a unique blend of warm and homey furnishings yet still retain the durability of a behavioral health product. Bedroom furniture pieces are constructed out of thermally fused laminate and secured to the floors and walls all units were to be completely tamper-proof. The public spaces consist of multi-functional lounge pieces and tables, strategically deigned to create both fun and work setting for these young individuals.
