Hear about the Latest Trends and Best Practices in Designing for Senior Care Environments

This three-day event delivers design strategies for senior living, through educational conference sessions, deep dive workshops, and community tours.

The Environments for Aging conference program is a comprehensive offering of exclusive content, carefully planned to provide attendees with practical applications and best practices in the design of senior care environments. The sessions are either research-focused or offer other educational scenarios including case studies, CCRC workshops, design outcomes or processes, and exploration of timely topics.
