Environments for Aging will again celebrate the individuals who are advancing the design of senior living environments. The 2021 EFA Design Champions awards program will honor those who are working to introduce design solutions that make a meaningful improvement in the lives of residents, staff, and/or the greater community.
Applicants will have contributed to the advancement of senior living design within the past two years and may include architects, interior designers, providers, owners/operators, community staff/caregivers, engineers, construction professionals, researchers, and academics.
Related work should be in settings such as skilled nursing, assisted living, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, hospice, independent living, and 55+ housing; considerations will be made for senior-specific solutions created in acute and post-acute care facilities.
All nominees for EFA Design Champions should be individuals; however, one project team award may be given to recognize a multi-person effort.
Deadline for nominations is Friday, Sept. 10, and the nomination form can be found here.
Winners will be announced in the Winter 2021 issue of EFA and celebrated during an awards luncheon to be held at the 2022 Environments for Aging Expo & Conference (April 2-5, Milwaukee).
Meet the 2020 Design Champions here.
