The Village at Mary’s Woods, located along the Willamette River in Lake Oswego, Oregon, evolved from a project originally intended for market-rate apartments into a vibrant senior housing campus. The Village at Mary’s Woods expands the existing retirement community, complementing the historic 1910 Provincial House. Comprising nine buildings, 246 senior housing units, and a public retail center, the design draws inspiration from European villages, fostering a sense of community and encouraging residents to engage with both each other and their natural surroundings. Architect George Signori, influenced by his research on European villages, crafted a campus with a strong focus on social interaction and outdoor spaces. Unlike traditional senior living communities, the design reflects a vibrant, interconnected public community with green spaces where residents can enjoy activities like bocce ball or family gatherings. The village layout connects residents to both public and private spaces, with 198 independent living units, 48 assisted living units, and a variety of amenities including five dining rooms, gardens, and hobby spaces. The campus also features commercial buildings with retail, a restaurant, and wellness facilities, creating a town square atmosphere. A prominent 65-foot campanile, designed to signal the Village Square as a public space, serves as a visual landmark and includes a carillon that chimes every hour. This design thoughtfully integrates architecture with landscaping, enhancing the experience of both residents and visitors in this unique senior living community.
