Our Services
We Offer a Range of Services to Meet Your Architectural Needs
Master Planning
Master planning plays a foundational role in our senior living practice. We believe that vibrant, successful communities are born from a rich tapestry of perspectives and thoughtful foresight. Our process is a dynamic partnership, tailored to each client's unique journey. Together, we transform long-term aspirations into cohesive, resilient designs that thrive today and evolve gracefully over time.​
Repositioning
EGA has participated in the successful repositioning of numerous senior communities. Over our history, we have also helped to develop and expand upon ever evolving trends. Where once we catered to the silent generations 'needs', EGA Architects continues to embrace the current generations 'desires'. We live in a world of choice, and preparing for the expectations of the future while improving the lives of current residents is a necessary part of every successful repositioning . EGA is uniquely qualified to help take these steps with you.
CCRC - LPCS
Life Plan Communities (CCRCs) remain a significant part of EGA's portfolio. These campuses provide a unique opportunity to develop creative, inclusive and holistic environments., EGA focuses on designs that cater to the physical, intellectual and emotional needs of each resident. A successful LPC/CCRC creates an environment that fosters socialization and communal life, while offering residents security and privacy. Successful designs combine the best elements of 'home' with the stimulation and variety of communal living.
Independent Living
Independent Living is more than a new chapter; it’s a vibrant invitation to rediscover home. We recognize that moving into a new community is a profound transition, and our design philosophy honors that journey by replacing "downsizing" with "right-sizing" for a fuller life.
​
We design private residences to be sanctuaries of light and warmth—spaces that don't just house personal history, but celebrate it. Beyond the front door, our common spaces act as a catalyst for connection. We craft diverse, high-energy amenities that maximize daily opportunities for discovery, ensuring that every environment feels both deeply familiar and excitingly new.
Assisted Living
EGA has remained a pioneering force in the evolution of Assisted Living since its inception. Over the decades, we have not only witnessed but actively championed a fundamental shift in the industry—moving from traditional, care-focused models to vibrant, lifestyle-driven environments. Today, we design spaces where world-class care and hospitality coexist seamlessly. By blending sophisticated amenities with intuitive support, we create communities that offer residents a level of choice and inspiration once considered unimaginable, ensuring that each environment truly reflects the richness of their lives.
Memory Care
Since 1992, when we partnered with Sunrise to design their inaugural ground-up community, EGA has remained at the forefront of memory support and assisted living innovation. With a legacy of over 150 communities, our design approach combines deep-rooted experience with a passion for the latest advancements in person-centered care. We translate our profound understanding of dementia and Alzheimer’s into intuitive, nurturing environments that empower residents, comfort families, and inspire the dedicated staff who care for them. Every space we design is a reflection of our commitment to evolving alongside the industry, ensuring our architecture remains a sophisticated and compassionate sanctuary for all.
Health Care
EGA's work with LPCs/CCRCs has placed us at the forefront of designing health care environments. We have employed a variety of long-term care models including traditional, cluster, household and neighborhoods. EGA also embraces the movement toward 'patient-centric' care and how our designs can respond. We continue to believe that a balance between the practical needs of the care staff, the daily needs of the residents, and the emotional needs of their families are critical to the success of both new environments and renovations.
Green House - Small House
EGA started employing many of the principles that arose with the Green House™ movement long before the project in Tupelo came to fruition. We believe strongly that the scale and quality of the environment should focus on the residents, without sacrificing the needs of staff and family members. These goals are universal.
We designed the first "Small House" long term care and the first Green House™ Memory Care in Massachusetts and have continued to advocate for and apply those principles across a wide range of project types and locations.
Hospice
For over 40 years, EGA has been a pioneer in hospice design, beginning with one of the first in-patient facilities in the United States and continuing today with two award-winning communities in Massachusetts.
​
We understand that hospice is a profound, shared journey that requires an environment unlike any other healthcare setting. Our design philosophy centers on creating a sanctuary of peace and dignity for everyone involved. We craft intuitive spaces that allow families to remain close to their loved ones while providing essential "breathing room"—serene alcoves for quiet reflection, vibrant play areas for children to be children, and restorative retreats where families and staff can recharge. By thoughtfully balancing clinical excellence with emotional support, we ensure these environments honor every moment with grace, comfort, and a deep respect for the human experience.
