Fortitude at Delta Towers

Fortitude at Delta Towers drew directly from the
sorority’s symbol, the African Violet, and its meaning:
courage through adversity. Our design concept
celebrated strength at the community’s core. While
developers feared loitering, we insisted on a central
lobby designed for gathering, connection, and support.
Violet-inspired forms shaped the lighting, enveloping
residents as they entered. Pillars throughout displayed
the sorority’s values, literally writing history into the
walls. This was senior housing reframed as heritage
space - where aging could mean belonging,
not isolation.
