SCO Family of Services - Genovese Family Life Center

Queens, NY


Spacesmith was engaged by repeat client SCO Family of Services for the four-story, renovation of the Genovese Family Life Center in Queens, NY. The goal was to transform an outdated workplace and client-facing facility into a modern space that advances the therapeutic services SCO provides. The Center houses SCO’s Queens-based foster care program with a family visiting area, medical and mental health suites, and the talented staff who runs their residential and youth justice programs. Our team focused on a human-centered and trauma informed design approach.

From one workplace consolidation project to two others, a state-of-the-art training facility, and a multi-purpose recreational facility, the relationship between SCO Family of Services and Spacesmith has grown and blossomed well. The Spacesmith team is highly responsive to our needs, and has put forth insightful designs that will have a positive impact on our organization, and those we serve, for years to come.
