In this live webinar, Sarah Wigglesworth will be joined in conversation by Karen Kubey to discuss approaches to designing and building for aging populations. The conversation, part of the Center for Architecture Presidential Lecture Series, will focus on both residential- and neighborhood-scale projects and will present opportunities and methods for creating homes and communities that allow for aging in place. The discussion will compare and contrast designing projects for aging in the U.S. and England and explore lessons learned from projects in both countries.
