Q&A
Beth Arokoyo
Project Manager and Senior Designer, Spellman Brady & Company
What defined senior living design 10 years
ago and what defines it now?
The industry has changed drastically over the last
decade. In the 2010s, most design focused on traditional
styles that appealed to The Greatest Generation.
Long hallways, sometimes with a clinical look, and
formal dining venues were typical. Currently, we see
an emphasis on design that promotes healthy lifestyles
and a desire to incorporate residential inspired finishes
with senior living durability. Tech-savvy Baby Boomers
are drawn to transitional or contemporary design.
We provide hospitality amenity spaces with integrated
technology that help seniors stay plugged in and active.
Multiple dining venues are a must, that promote
choice and flexibility for residents, staff, and visitors to
socialize and thrive.
How do you involve residents to ensure their
voices are heard in the design process?
Residents have a unique perspective and there is
great value in their input. When designing a renovation
project, we like to invite a resident committee
to key meetings so they can weigh in on design
decisions in person. If the design team can get to
know the members of a resident committee, it will
lead to more empathy on both sides and improve the
flow of ideas back and forth. As designers, we must
find a way to successfully balance feedback from all
the players at the table-resident, owner, developer,
management team, staff, caregivers, and other professionals
(architects/engineers).
