Bamboo Silhouette Wall Mural Makes Big Splash at Retirement Center

March 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Elephants on the Wall, a nationally recognized wall mural design company, was thrilled to learn that their Bamboo Silhouette wall mural was selected by The Harrick Group to be used at the Allegro at Willoughby Retirement Living facility in Stuart Florida.

What makes this mural special is that this paint-by-number bamboo design was used as a pattern for the background of a water feature in the spa’s reception area. Wanting a serene spa-like feel, the Allegro had the pattern sandblasted onto both sides of a 4’ x 8’ glass panel surrounded by a stunning 7’ x 8’ wood frame. The panel is lit from the bottom and the water runs gently down the face of the glass into river rocks below.

The Harrick Group, a Chicago based interior design firm, is know as one of the most fashion forward firms in the hotel industry. They focus exclusively on design services for the hospitality market.

The Allegro at Willoughby is a new retirement center nestled on the coast near Stuart’s historic downtown area. They provide inspired living for 190 residents who enjoy amenities such as fine dining in any of their four restaurants, concierge service, the Bistro, a stadium seating theater, spa and much more.
