Designing Safe and Nurturing Environments for Seniors

Some key items that we focus on carefully with our Memory Care designs include:

Considering that Memory Care residents have a tendency to wander, common spaces need to be easily navigable, well-lit, while also providing connections to the outdoor environment.
Focusing carefully on areas of social, cognitive, and physical activities.
Creating a home-like interior design that engages the senses and calms residents by reducing confusion and fostering a sense of independence and dignity.
Designing secure and purposeful outdoor spaces with walking paths so residents can enjoy nature.

Our design experience includes single-story memory care layouts along with multi-story communities. Regardless of the physical layout, our designs ensure safe, nurturing and thriving environments for residents with the greatest cognitive needs. At the same time, we develop designs that maximize efficiencies for your staff and your business operations.
