NeoConnect | The Design of Community – Senior Living Trends

As designers, we are faced with the challenge of incorporating the essence of senior living into the overall design of a community—at all scales. Our session will build on the current concept of senior living: their desire is to be part of a multigenerational community supporting the engagement of active, purposeful and meaningful living. The designers’ goal is to provide environments that encourage all individuals to maximize their abilities and positive outcomes. Our session will update the trends and provide the direction for senior living and the related healthcare marketplace from the following perspectives: health and wellness, sustainability, programming, care population, as well as the utilization of inclusive design principles.
