Submitted by: CJMW Architecture and MMW Architects
This phased major expansion of Immanuel Lutheran Communities was a collaborative effort from the start, with a master plan and design developed through
a close relationship between board members, administrative leadership, and
key staff members. The deep understanding of operations as well as organizational mission that each individual brought to the effort informed several critical
decisions. For example, staff input influenced the move to tie in memory care
to already interconnected independent and assisted living spaces, resulting in a
plan that allows each piece to function independently but still work as a cohesive
unit with shared common amenities. Additionally, staff interviewed age- and
income-qualified members of the community to gather input on independent
living options and conducted a follow-up survey of 500 individuals that validated
initial findings, greatly informing the design of apartments and activity areas.
Current and prospective residents were involved in decisions about the interior
finishes and the overall aesthetic of the new spaces, as well. EFA
