After the strong increase in the Spanish population due to the baby boom, in recent decades the aging of our country is evident. Due to the increase in life expectancy, we are on the way to becoming one of the oldest countries in the world. This increase in the percentage of older people is causing the birth of new services to meet your needs.
And this is where nursing homes come into play. An ineffective model for many and that must evolve in the coming years to approach the appropriate model. It is precisely in this context of evolution that a new concept appears that separates itself from the traditional residence for the elderly for the services, but also for the decorative part: the senior linvig.
Both are places to provide accommodation and care for the elderly, but in the case of the senior living, they are intended for independent people over 65 years of age who have full cognitive and physical capacity.
Within the Senior Living model there are several models, such as the Senior Living Cohousing (a group of people with common interests who come together under the cooperative formula to promote the project where they are going to reside), the Senior Living Coliving (homes with common areas developed by a developer whose units are marketed in a sales format among the senior market, or the Senior Living Resort (an urbanization usually located on the coast and intended for foreign residents).
A senior living complex in Madrid: Design services and decoration
Within this new generation of complexes for people over 65, Las Arcadias El Encinar arrives in Madrid. A complex promoted by Layetana Real Estate that has caught our attention and that is intended for `people totally independent, who seek to continue with their usual routine and lifestyle, but having all kinds of services and personnel within their reach that can facilitate and improve their quality of life.
This residential complex has services such as a restaurant, large lounges, an English bar, private dining rooms, a library, a chapel, a gym, an indoor heated pool, an outdoor pool, a hairdresser’s salon, a spa, massage services, cleaning and laundry… as well as a 24-hour reception. .
The senior living complexes, such as the Las Arcadias El Encinar complex, have been designed by luxury interior designers taking care of even the smallest detail of decoration and infrastructure of the complex. Everything is adapted for the elderly, but in a very subtle way that goes completely unnoticed so that the people who live there feel that they are in a luxury development with all kinds of comforts.
Empty apartments to be decorated
Another of the differences of Senior complexes such as Las Arcadias El Encinar is that the apartments, with classic and neutral lines, are left empty and unpainted at the disposal of the guests, so that they can decorated and furnished as they wish.
In this way, they can bring their own furniture, bed, chest of drawers… to make them feel at home. But if they wish, they also have the possibility that the apartment is decorated by the same interior designer who has designed the common areas of the complex.
