“Rice Fergus Miller has been honored to be the design partner for eliseo. Our design concept – Harmonious Light and Color – celebrates light and color as it relates to the stained glass of the chapel as well as the rich glass art culture of the region. Glass works are
dynamic and change throughout day; influenced by the quality of light, weather and season, the experience can be unique from one day to the next. This dynamism is also a critical key to quality of life in a retirement community, where residents are engaged daily by new and novel opportunities.”
