Norman Senior Wellness Center

Providing unique amenities to Norman’s older population

Norman, OK

We believe in building more than just buildings—we build places where communities come together, grow, and thrive. That’s exactly what we set out to do with the new Adult Wellness and Education Center in Norman, Oklahoma.

This 30,000-square-foot facility was designed to be vibrant, welcoming, and full of energy. Inside, there’s a warm saltwater pool for therapy and recreation, a walking track, rooms for art and exercise classes, cardio and strength training areas, and even a teaching kitchen for culinary programs. One of our favorite features? A beautiful u-shaped table made from a preserved local tree—a perfect blend of natural charm and thoughtful design.

From the beginning, we knew this project was something special. The center’s colorful aesthetic—with multi-colored windows, bright flooring, bold wallpaper, and detailed finishes like wooden handrails and decorative stone—brings a joyful, uplifting vibe that mirrors its mission.

We ran into a few curveballs along the way. Construction started before the final design was fully approved, which meant we had to pivot quickly as plans changed. Major updates to the steel structure, foundation work, and the addition of a pool ramp kept us on our toes. But thanks to our strong partnership with the city and our flexible team, we made it happen—on time and with care.

We even helped organize the groundbreaking and ribbon-cutting events, and set up a live video feed so the Norman community could follow along with the progress. That’s the kind of collaboration and connection we’re proud to be part of.

Now, the Adult Wellness and Education Center is alive with activity—and we’re proud to say we helped bring it to life. It’s more than a project to us. It’s a place where people gather, grow, and feel at home.
