The Blake At Tyler

Tyler, TX

Situated in Tyler, TX, The Rose City, this senior living community beautifully merges local influences with a sophisticated design aesthetic. We emphasize the use of natural materials and attention to small details in our furniture and millwork, creating an inviting atmosphere. A soft palette of greens, blues, golds, and pinks flows throughout the building, bringing a sense of warmth to each space.

Each area is thoughtfully designed to feel like a different room in a home, featuring unique lighting and cozy gathering spots that foster a sense of community.

The furniture selection combines timeless and contemporary elements, utilizing traditional frames paired with modern fabrics. Custom fabrics and wall coverings are strategically integrated throughout the project, all designed to have a residential feel while remaining durable enough for commercial use.

To maintain a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor areas, the outdoor furniture mirrors the interior design scheme in each courtyard, enhancing the overall flow of the space. Additionally, an art package featuring custom local images adds a personal touch throughout the project.

Notes from our clients

“My first interaction with Banko was when they rescued me on another project… I was introduced to Melissa and she stepped right in. I was so impressed by what she pulled off both in terms of the product, the timeliness, just the resource she was that I started using her for most of our interior design work thereafter.”

Katherine Mosley, Partner, Tribridge Residential

“They do a great job listening, but also asking the right questions. Pointed questions. They're not afraid to ask those questions and push back when needed… We really appreciate the fact that Banko Design pushes back when needed, and candidly does so. We appreciate that. Feels like more of a partnership.”

Ashish Bagley, Manager, Tribridge Residential

“If you know Melissa, she's just full of energy, but extremely smart. And I thought that her whole team follows that example. You know, just high energy, but extreme detail in each of their categories. The kids are really going to enjoy [this renovation]. It will not only be a great experience for the students, but also the teachers… and this is going to be a special place for them. No one has seen a pre-school like this… with the carpet and the lighting and the glass, there's whole sections just designated for imagination and exploring. All of it put together really makes for a cool experience.”

Dana Ridenour, Assistant Head of School, Finance & Operations, Mt. Pisgah
