This was my senior level thesis design. I worked on an Alzheimer's facility because both of my mother's parents suffer from Alzheimer's and live in homes that do not necessarily prevent memory loss. My main goal in the design of this facility is to help the patients to maintain their independence and memory. The name Tonbo is dragonfly in Japanese. To the Japanese, the dragonfly is a symbol of courage and strength, much like patients with Alzheimer's have.
