With a growing need for housing assistance for families of children being treated in the TMC hospitals, we designed this 20-bedroom expansion and a renovation of the existing Holcombe House. The kitchen, living, and dining areas of the existing building were renovated, expanded, and updated. Updated lobby, entertainment rooms and a sports and gaming room feature games and a variety of respite areas, while a business center will help parents stay connected back home.
The addition features a skybridge that connects families to the 20 new bedrooms, featuring large windows, two queen beds and a wheelchair accessible bathroom. Each floor includes a media room where parents and children can relax and unwind. The project was designed to create an atmosphere of comfort and caring for children receiving treatment and their families.
