This shift towards a more hospitality-inspired design approach aims to create vibrant environments that promote residents’ overall well-being and encourage them to fully embrace life.

Embracing intentionality
Senior Living communities represent an opportunity to create spaces that support healing, restoration, inspiration, and connection for those we love most. Through intentional design and thoughtful furniture choices, we can care for those who got us to where we are today.

Great American Art For Senior Living
Senior living encompasses a variety of settings. In independent and assisted living spaces, art complements dynamic environments for social and individual activities. In memory care, evocative and stimulating images of everyday objects, nature, and colorful forms support connection and communication.
Designing experiences for senior living communities through artwork selection considers a lot, from the type of community being served (such as independent and assisted living to memory care) to the specific needs of these communities. Design is taking on a more hospitality-inspired approach that focuses on creating engaging environments that encourage residents to live life to the fullest. As John Cronin of the AIA reported, “Providers are taking a closer look at resident interests and working with design teams to create specialized spaces that speak to these hobbies and desired amenities.”
