LivABLE - Website News Banner.jpg

As part of LivABLE Canada’s 2021 Design Summit, Cognitive Design Architect Matt Finn, Cognitive Design Consultant Meldrena Chapin, and Altro’s Senior Living expert Susan Drew discuss trends in aging, socioeconomics, and care provisions driving the need for supportive home design and living in place strategies as options for where people live late in life. They explored the importance of socialization and interpersonal connection in facilitating good health as well as the relationship between physical and mental health. Their discussion centered on creative ways to create freedom of choice in residential design that facilitates health for individuals of all ages, and abilities, to live a full and meaningful life, regardless of their health status.
