A <strong>LOOK</strong> <strong>BACK</strong> <strong>AT</strong> <strong>THE</strong> <strong>TOP</strong> 7<br />

<strong>SENIOR</strong> <strong>LIVING</strong> <strong>DESIGN</strong> <strong>TRENDS</strong> <strong>2016</strong><br />

INTRODUCTION<br />

The rise of baby boomers is increasingly changing the<br />

senior living landscape on a large scale. Amenities and<br />

services provided have to be of top quality to meet the<br />

resident's demand and expectation. People don't settle<br />

for less nowadays and here we look at some of the<br />

senior living design trends which caught people's<br />

attention and were highly praised.


FLEXIBLE <strong>DESIGN</strong>ING


Open and flexible designs with lots of space<br />

generated high attraction for private assisted<br />

living centers. A common room helps to organize<br />

various activities and gatherings with all the<br />

elder members of the community.


BOUTIQUE AMENITIES


Taste and preference of seniors are changing<br />

each day as they are looking for interactive dining<br />

experiences with all other members rather than<br />

eating their meal only. High-quality hospitality<br />

services like those of restaurants with flexible<br />

dining hours, multiple places are highly<br />

appreciated by the members.


BIOPHILIC <strong>DESIGN</strong> &<br />

N<strong>AT</strong>URAL COLORS


Biophilic designs are appropriate for modern<br />

assisted living facilities as they give a unique and<br />

innovative touch. Living plant walls, wooden<br />

ceiling, gives a natural look to the indoors<br />

thereby infusing positive energy among the<br />

senior members


HEALTH &<br />

WELLNESS ROOM


Yoga and fitness rooms are a must for modern<br />

senior care facilities to maintain a proper mind,<br />

body, and soul of the members. Communities are<br />

trying to meet every want and are providing<br />

fitness, yoga and wellness classes along with<br />

equipment designed for the elderly.


USE OF MODERN<br />

TECHNOLOGY


Senior citizens are more tech savvy with the growth<br />

of smartphones and tablets and so availability of<br />

modern technology in assisted living communities is<br />

of high priority. Senior care communities are trying<br />

to integrate all modern technologies like availability<br />

of Wi-Fi, keyless room entry to catch the eye of the<br />

people.


DEMAND FOR MODULAR<br />

CARPET TILES


Modular carpet tiles are introduced long ago but<br />

their demand is still strong due to ease of<br />

installation, ability to change tiles and the benefits<br />

of less wastage. Major improvements have taken<br />

place with the dye lots and patterns and are widely<br />

used by senior living communities.


USE OF LED LIGHTING


Expense gets reduced with the use of LED lighting<br />

and so all modern home senior care communities<br />

are looking to install LED bulbs to lower<br />

maintenance cost and enjoy long-term cost savings.<br />

LED lighting helps to maintain body's natural<br />

circadian rhythm, which is highly beneficial for<br />

memory care residents.
