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.
