Design for Aging Review 10

The AIA Design for Aging Knowledge Community and the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging (AAHSA), as part of its Quality First Initiative, invite architects, designers, researchers and providers to submit projects and research for consideration in Design for Aging Review, 10th Edition.

The Review includes a juried exhibition, a book, and educational programs that showcase facilities representing conscientious environments and research that advances environments for senior living. A jury of architects and care providers for the aging will select the projects and research to be published and exhibited. This comprehensive review of architectural design trends for the aging will become a reference for providers, developers, users, advocates, architects, and interior, landscape, and other design professionals. This program gives architects and researchers the opportunity to demonstrate innovative solutions that improve the quality of life within specific project constraints.

Projects selected for publication will be exhibited at the AAHSA Annual Meeting and Exposition in both 2009 and 2010 as well as at the 2010 and 2011 AIA National Convention.
