The Architect’s Newspaper’s Mimi Zeiger interviews Joel Sanders who is championing a new design typology for the future of aging. People are living longer and more independent lives and architect’s must respond in their design for assisted living, independent living, and memory care facilities. Sanders discusses his design for “The Commons“, a senior housing community in Palm Springs that challenges pre-existing notions of senior facilities, using landscape and shared outdoor space to weave assisted and independent living facilities, creating a community-based environment for a diverse and active, older demographic.
