Description

It’s perhaps not something we think much about until we need it. But where we live when we get older will become a priority especially when our physical and social needs dictate our choices. Today, those choices have become much more palatable and even enticing when it comes to Luxury Senior Living. The demand for these high-end homes designed with community, health and wellness in mind continues to rise. It is also where WATG’s Daun St. Amand comes in.
As Managing Principal focusing on Residential and Senior Living projects, Daun recognises that later living is an opportunity to up the ante on the
fundamentals in design when it comes to creating spaces with purpose. It is that kind of thinking that Daun has always found himself drawn to especially how form and function can enhance the health and wellbeing of those who will end up occupying those places.
With over 30 years of experience in a career that has largely been focused on residential, landmark high-rise and urban-density projects, for Daun, new concepts in design was something he grew up exploring, an imagination fostered by days of playing near his home in the suburbs of Los Angeles to getting lost in the magic of making music.
