Shapiro Didway

Wellness – biophilia turns a residence into a home, and a lush courtyard into a community. Exercise, socialization, relaxation, and nourishment are at the heart of three unique elevated courtyards and a public green street recently completed in Hillsboro, Oregon. Two courtyards were designed for vibrant, community-focused residents, with one dedicated to independent living – each distinct yet collectively holistic. Covered outdoor cooking stations, a swimming pool, bocce court, water feature, fire tables, seating nooks, and a sensory walking loop – every feature is designed to support healthy, community-centered living.
