Covenant Place II

Senior living communities face a range of architectural and design challenges. Our team brings expertise and empathy to solve these issues effectively. Our approach blends forward-thinking innovations with evidence-based design to create spaces that are sustainable, modern and resident-focused.

Covenant Place II

Covenant Place II redevelopment plan replaced the functionally obsolete building with new, energy-efficient buildings and apartments to better serve residents and the broader community. The universal design allows ease-of-use for residents with a broad range of housing and accessibility needs. Room features include visual alerts for doorbells, smoke detectors for those who are hard-of-hearing, and adequate cabinets and storage within reach range for residents using wheelchairs. The new building also includes space for property management, commercial space for a physical therapy practice and medical suite, and a senior lifestyle center that services all Covenant Place campus residents and residents living in the surrounding community. The senior lifestyle center includes a café with a demonstration kitchen that promotes residents’ involvement in the community, gathering spaces with lounge seating, classrooms, an exercise room, a multi-purpose space for community events, and administration offices.

Our Approach for Senior Living Design

At LNB Studio, we don’t just design structures and living spaces; we create environments where people flourish. Our designs balance aesthetics with practicality, incorporating accessible and secure outdoor areas and indoor spaces that promote well-being, ensure comfort, and focus on adaptability.

Because we listen deeply, our senior living designs reflect a soulful understanding of the needs and aspirations of the residents and staff. It’s important to design a space that allows seniors to maintain independence and dignity while providing the necessary support, care, and inspiration to thrive.

Our senior living designs focus on smart building technologies such as touchless features, adaptive designs with flexible layouts for changing needs, and innovative design solutions like noise-absorbing materials. Our work complies with codes and standards from the International Building Code (IBC), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), fire code requirements, and state and local regulations.

We brainstorm spaces that inspire human connection and enable seamless care. Spaces like community rooms foster socialization and a sense of belonging, nurses' stations are strategically located, and safety features are prevalent throughout, such as:

  • Handrails

  • Wider doorways and hallways

  • Roll-in Showers

  • Non-slip flooring

  • Voice-activated emergency call systems

  • Finishes and fabrics are durable, antimicrobial and safe for high standards of cleanliness.
