Environments for Aging - Fall 2024 - 45

WELCOME TO EFA'S 2024
REMODEL/RENOVATION
COMPETITION
LOT OF HARD work goes into refreshing and
reinventing existing spaces within senior living
communities to better meet resident and staff
needs. Environments for Aging celebrates
these efforts through its annual EFA Remodel/
Renovation Competition. Now in its 16th year,
the 2024 program highlights Gold, Silver, and Bronze
winners, with narratives describing project goals and
how the resulting designs responded to those specific
needs. Additionally, we have a gallery of all projects
submitted to the program this year so you can explore
even more outstanding renovations. Many thanks go
out to our jury members, listed here, for taking the time
to review the submissions and vote for their favorites.
And congratulations to our winners! Please join us
in celebrating their accomplishments next year during
the EFA Magazine Awards Luncheon to be held at the
2025 Environments for Aging Conference + Expo, taking
place April 26-29 in Lexington, Ky.-Anne DiNardo,
editor-in-chief

About the submissions: The Remodel/Renovation Competition submissions come from across the U.S. and cover a variety of construction costs and project scopes. Every year, a multidisciplinary panel of invited jurors from EFA reviews the submissions. The panel includes
architects, interior designers, researchers, academics, regulatory experts, and providers. Jurors view the submissions according to their areas of expertise, then rate the submissions and provide comments to help clarify the rationale for the rating before selecting winners.
Jurors are excluded from reviewing projects that they or their firms were involved with; jurors who are associated with projects in the finalist round are not permitted to vote for winners. All participants pay a small entry fee and receive coverage of their project in the Remodel/
Renovation Gallery (see page 50). The top three projects receive expanded coverage on the pages that follow. All write-ups were provided directly by the submitting firms and were not edited for content by the Environments for Aging editorial staff.
