The first Baby Boomers turned 75 last year, and with that milestone comes the need for both more housing and more diverse living options. This next generation has different ideas about what it means to age well.

At Ryan, the Senior Living team is focused on helping to meet that need in a variety of ways. In addition to focusing on present challenges like cost inflation for an industry still recovering from the pandemic, we are also looking to the future by connecting with new operating partners and exploring new models like active adult.

Thanks to the support of our clients and internal partners and to the success of Ryan’s integrated platform, we have grown into one of the busiest senior living design teams in the country. With team members in seven Ryan offices, we have built a national practice to support the growth of the sector.

We are excited to share some updates with you in this issue of Ryan OnDesign.

GRAND LIVING AT GEORGETOWN

Biophilia & Social Participation Drew Roskos, A+E Senior Project Designer, recently completed a research fellowship through the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Design for Aging knowledge community. He looked to identify if there is a connection between a resident's involvement in social activities and their exposure to biophilic elements, or the connection to nature within the built environment. Drew's research focused on the following question: "Do elements of biophilic

RESIDENTS ARE AWARE OF OBVIOUS BIOPHILIC ELEMENTS Residents are aware of the obvious instances of biophilia when they are engaging in social participation. This is evident in their preferences for common area spaces that have a direct connection to nature or daylight. The research showed that they are not consciously aware of the biophilic instincts that are more abstract in application such as areas of refuge and prospect in their built environment.

design increase social participation of older adults in senior living communities?​" Drew explored this connection through interviews, surverys and observation.

The data collection took place this spring at two Mather communities in Illinois and Arizona, and findings on his research were presented at the annual Environments for Aging Conference this past April.

Additionally, Drew used this research within his capstone project for his Master of Arts in Gerontology program at Concordia University Chicago.

The first step of the research study began with presenting the topic of biophilic design to the residents, followed by resident surveys

RESIDENTS ARE MOST SOCIAL IN DEDICATED COMMUNITY SPACES Residents placed a higher priority on social interaction in the lobby, dwelling unit, and dining because this is where people are meeting as groups, having casual interactions and bringing in outside guests. Strategies to increase a connection to nature in these locations could improve the health and wellbeing of residents.

and on-site observations. Main themes of Drew's research results are described here and are being incorporated into Ryan-designed projects.

RESIDENT COMFORT IS CRITICAL Several barriers to social participation were noted by participants. Thermal comfort played a role in residents' view of their common spaces–lack of sunlight and it being too cold were common barriers to social participation. Difficulty hearing in large spaces was also a common theme in the responses as well as the comfort level of the seating in the spaces.

Considerations for Growing in New Markets

Tapping into the local construction team and subcontractor knowledge is key to a streamlined process and early integration of local building requirements. Having an A+E presence in key growing markets can also be a critical component in streamlining collaboration and team integration.

Interior Design Trends Ryan A+E's Interior Design team curates elevated design elements which transcends hospitality norms

CURRENT DESIGN TRENDS Some trends we are seeing currently—and don’t see going away anytime soon—are arches, curved furniture, mixed metals, stone topped tables and large-scale prints in fabrics and wallcoverings.

throughout our senior living communities. Throughout our process, we give special attention to every detail— addressing lighting, furniture layout and material selection to create spaces that are comfortable, durable and beautiful. Through this turnkey approach, we enhance the interior environments by providing places for vitality, comfort, community and wellness.

TRENDS THAT STAND THE TEST OF TIME Even though we are aware of trends we are cautious to not be “trendy” in the sense we want our buildings to stand the test of time. By choosing timeless pieces and designing spaces to last, we ensure we are not only creating luxurious residences but also remaining relevant in the industry.

As an advocate for the end user, we balance these design features and finishes with the practical side of designing for an aging population. We take into consideration appropriate flooring transitions, contrast from walls to floor, furniture to support ease of movement and stability, upholstery that is impermeable or moistureresistant and opportunities for memorable design features that can assist with wayfinding and navigation. We search for the latest trends, with a focus on innovation in furnishings, by attending conferences and shows where we discover the latest and greatest manufacturers have to offer. The interiors team offers full-service interior design, including FFE selections and procurement (the newest service offering of Ryan A+E).
