Arriving at creative solutions requires the consistent belief that architecture can be better for its inhabitants. Reevaluating modern designs with innovative technology, we’ve committed to finding the best possible materials and technology to enhance the lives of seniors who are living out their days away from home. We are relationally and socially focused, which means the facilities we design take into account the unique challenges and strains of seniors with dementia of all phases. Understanding what innovative technology is available and utilizing it is a key component to our process.

Architecture, in a fundamental sense, began as a basic human need; a means for survival and function. In the present day, it has evolved into an artistic representation of cultural values or societal rhythms. As design evolves, so do the tools we use. When ARFAi was founded, we still drew buildings by hand, turning sketches to elaborate renders on large wooden tables, surrounded by a selection of instruments and paper.
