our firm

our group 

IBI Group Seniors Communities was formed to focus exclusively 

on Seniors Residential projects drawing together extensive 

experience accumulated North America wide in three major related 

sectors: Hospitality, Health Care and High Density Residential. 

Hospitality 

IBI Group has an extensive portfolio of Hospitality Projects ranging from Resort Hotels to 

downtown destination Convention Hotels. This experience is current and ongoing. Our practice is 

based on up-to-date concepts of hospitality – restaurant design, kitchen layout, spa and amenity 

layout and design. These concepts are founded on the operational fundamentals of segregation of 

service functions from the guest experience. 

Health Care 

Through our IBI Healthcare+ practice we are actively involved in cutting edge healthcare design. 

With experience ranging from out-patient clinics, through operating room design to full service 

regional hospitals, we provide our expert knowledge of programming, high levels of servicing and 

facilities that modern hospitals demand. 

High Density Residential 

Our High Density Residential experience gained from projects completed across North America 

gives us a unique perspective on suite design and amenity programs offered across various 

markets and regions. We approach our projects with a rigour that guarantees building design, 

unit sizes and dimensions, amenity layout, and image appropriate to their particular region. 

High Density Residential projects are rigorously controlled from Concept to Commissioning.

Sustainable Design 

LEED ® gives building owners and operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their 

building’s energy performance. LEED ® promotes a whole building approach to sustainability by recognizing total energy 

performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy 

efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality. 

IBI Group has been involved with numerous sustainable projects including: 

» BC Cancer Research Centre Vancouver, BC – LEED ® Gold 

» Minto Sheppard Residential Development Toronto, ON – LEED ® Silver 

» Minto Roehampton Residential Development Toronto, ON – LEED ® Silver 

» Children’s & Women’s Mental Health Centre Vancouver, BC – LEED ® Silver Certification in progress 

For building owners and operators who do not wish to enter the LEED ® Certification process, we can advise on operational 

improvements such as heat recovery and building management systems that can improve operational bottom lines with 

measurable pay-back periods. We can also specify interior materials, paints and adhesives that minimize off-gassing and 

release of participants thereby demonstrably improving indoor air quality. 

Design Methodology 

IBI Group Seniors Communities is very respectful of the culture and development goals of its clients. We are aware that 

each institution or organization has its own identity and methodology. Our goal is to thoroughly understand our client and to 

develop design solutions that specifically match that client. 

At all times, proprietary client information is held as strictly confidential. Within that context, IBI Group Seniors 

Communities has no design preconception; our goal is to achieve design excellence and innovation while giving form your 

identity, values and culture. 

IBI Group Seniors Communities has constructed, or is in the planning stages on, more than 40 seniors related 

projects in 3 Provinces and several cities and regions across Canada. Our projects include public sector Assisted Living 

Facilities, Private Long Term Care Facilities, public and private sector Seniors Independent Living Facilities and Seniors 

Planned Communities with a range of services. We have a dedicated senior management group that is well experienced 

in programming, design and delivery of these projects, supported by a core support staff for contract document and 

administration functions.

INDEPENDENT LIVING / INTERIORS / ASSISTED LIVING / OTHER SERVICES

independent living 

Seniors independent living communities can include seniors oriented condominiums, 

or publicly subsidized rental communities. Often the independent living takes a form 

similar to a resort hotel, with a community of more or less self-sufficient residential 

units supported by full service kitchen and dining facilities and first class amenities 

including activity rooms, lounges, support facilities, spa and pool. The market for this 

type can often be a highly competitive and constantly evolving market. 

We are now including, in some areas, care and memory floors within the communities 

to further enhance resident options. IBI Group Seniors Communities approach 

most projects with careful consideration of phasing an often combine independent 

living, assisted living and condominium into integrated master planned communities.

facility was completed in 1999. 

15

Harmony Village 

TORONTO, ON CANADA 

This project represents a truly integrated seniors 

community. Planned around a formal garden and entry 

court, the plan comprises two towers (containing 300 

suites each of rental and condominium accommodation) 

rising from residential podiums. 

Also provided is a long term care facility of 50 units and 

a seniors club that unites all the uses and gives onto 

the garden. Extensive use is made of green roofs and 

terraces. 

The Royalton London 

LONDON, ON CANADA 

This is the first phase of a development consisting of a seniors 

independent living community and a medical office building. 

The 170 suite home is designed as a resort hotel, featuring 

luxurious finishes to suit the classical stone and brick 

articulation of the facades. Its stepped form allows walk out 

terraces for some upgraded suites. Full service dining lounges 

and activity rooms are provided, including a swimming pool/ 

spa area. The grounds are richly landscaped and allow 

walkouts from the dining and other major rooms. 

17

The Phoenician 


This adult condominium complex was designed to 

accommodate 200 units. The project was developed 

in 3 phases and totaled 230,530 sq.ft., at a cost of 

$16,063,000. 

Each suite includes oversized tubs, gas fireplaces, 

french doors, raised panel doors with brass hardware, 

ceiling heights of 9 ft., and in suite laundry areas. 

Public areas include a 1000 sq.ft. home entertainment 

theatre with tiered seating, large screen and sound 

system. Focal reception/lounge area includes a 

2-sided fireplace, billiard table with a expansive deck 

area complete with barbeque. Also there is a kitchen 

fully equipped, hobby area and guest suites. 

Manchester Housing 


IBI Group was retained to design a project to house two 

differing age groups in need of assistance for affordable 

housing. IBI has developed a project to house 132 working 

singles and 70 mature residents. The mature residents are 

housed in a 3-storey, 2,566 sq.m. wood frame building 

including common kitchen and dining areas. Issues of 

sustainability were developed into the design from the onset. 

19

Kensington Place 


This independent living community is located along a 

major street that is in the process of redevelopment. 

Kensington Place is designed to reinforce the 

streetscape, with a classical façade and pronounced 

formal entry element at the streetline. The building 

projects back from the street in a “T” shape creating a 

service court with access to underground parking and 

an intimate landscaped courtyard with access from 

the dining room. With 103 suites, the facility features 

a full service dining room, lounges and activity areas 

split between the ground floor and the top floor taking 

advantage of a large landscaped roof terrace. 

21

Grosvenor Gate 


This is a master planned community within a stable residential 

area located near the Thames River. The master plan, 

integrated with existing rental properties, provides for low rise, 

mid rise, high rise and townhouse accommodation in a rental 

or condominium format. While tied into the street grid, the 

master plan configuration allows for a series of linked, formal 

and informal pedestrian gardens and walkways culminating 

in a landscaped “common”. The “common” is framed by a 

150 suite seniors independent living facility linked to a low rise 

seniors condominium. A full service dining room, lounges and 

activity rooms on the ground floor share the “common” with 

other residents and the community. 

1066 Avenue Road 


This seniors community takes its design cues from 

an Anglican Church which used to occupy the site. A 

broad dormered roof addresses the adjacent residential 

neighbourhood while providing a series of delightful and 

creatively designed suites within it. Clad in stone and brick 

the project addresses the scale of the surrounding residential 

community while creating a warm and intimate image for its 

residents. A full service dining room, lounges, activity rooms 

and spa support 90 residential suites on this tight urban site. 

23

Kingsway Seniors 


At the angle of two merging streets, this 110 suite seniors 

independent living community is designed as a classically 

detailed “flat iron” building. With a prominent vertical turret, bay 

windows, stone and brick articulation, and a prominent stone 

base, it integrates well into one of the cities older and more 

exclusive suburbs. The design feature full underground parking 

and drop off, full service amenities, gardens, roof terraces, and 

service facilities, all on a very tight site with a subway underneath. 

The Royalton Peterborough 

PETERBOROUGH, ON CANADA 

The small market version of the Royalton brand, this 

seniors independent living community is located on a 

beautifully treed site, designed to accommodate 140 

units with a second phase of 30 units. The design 

creates a broad courtyard to preserve existing mature 

trees and provide a walkout for major rooms on the 

ground floor. Its entrance canopy, gable ends, dormer 

windows, and pitched roof represent a “relaxed 

regional style” with full service amenities.

assisted living 

Assisted living communities are public or private initiatives designed to care 

for seniors who are physically or mentally frail or incapacitated. Often based 

on initiatives lead by Provinces or States, the aim of these communities is to 

provide a nurturing and supportive environment for seniors and their families in an 

enhanced atmosphere of care, outside of the hospital system. IBI Group Seniors 

Communities takes great care to provide an enhanced level of servicing to these 

facilities while projecting a home-like atmosphere.

St. Vincent’s Heather 

VANCOUVER, BC CANADA 

In Joint Venture with Henriquez Partners Architects 

IBI/Henriquez Partners on behalf of Providence Health 

Care, have obtained a rezoning for a portion of SVH’s 

site that will allow the construction of a new 60,000 SF 

assisted living project (ILBC). The proposed Assisting 

Living project will include 68 units of affordable housing 

and PHC Administration offices. This will provide 60 units 

of social housing for seniors and 8 units for young disabled 

adults funded under the Independent Living BC Program 

sponsored by BC Housing, Vancouver Coastal Health, 

CMHC and Providence Health Care. This project will 

introduce an affordable housing component with access 

to hospitality and health services in keeping with the 

spectrum of uses planned for the entire Campus of Care

full support of the adjacent regional hospital, the master plan 

proposes a 170 suite full service seniors independent living 

building, linked directly to an adjacent long term care building. 

The site plan is completed by a series of semi-detached 

bungalows designed to accommodate more active seniors. All 

of the components are integrated on the same site in order to 

share amenities and services. The overall landscape concept 

includes themed walking paths linking all of the buildings with 

an adjacent forest preserve.

Sunshine Lodge 

DRUMHELLER, AB CANADA 

IBI Group was responsible for tender documents for an 

addition and renovation to the existing 55 resident Sunshine 

Lodge in Drumheller, Alberta. IBI Group’s proposal helped 

secure $1.5 million in HAPI funding for the expansion and 

renovation of the Drumheller Sunshine Lodge. The addition 

includes 29 new residential units, a dining room for the entire 

Lodge population, and a Wellness Centre including a fireside 

library, exercise area, spa, beauty salon, an “internet café“, 

and offices. New units are grouped into small clusters, with 

private lounges for each group. There are two 12-resident 

clusters, and one 6-unit cluster with it’s own kitchen, lounge 

and outdoor garden. Minor renovations to the existing building 

included converting 12 existing single units to 6 double units, 

converting existing areas to additional recreation space, and 

creating a new access road and entrance to the building. 

37

Friuli Long Term Care 

WOODBRIDGE, ON CANADA 

Designed on an existing campus containing a banquet 

hall and independent living community, this 168 bed long 

term care facility acts as a link between the two existing 

buildings. Funded by the Italian community, this nonprofit 

seniors project had to meet rigorous budget criteria 

and funding parameters. Its 7 storey form dictated by a 

tight site, contains on each floor, a fully functional and 

self contained resident home area of 28 beds with dining, 

lounge, reception and bathing facilities. A rear opening 

elevator communicates directly from the central kitchen 

to individual serveries. The ground floor contains a café 

and activity rooms giving onto a series of “Italianate” 

gardens, including a secure courtyard. 

Villa Bella 

NIAGARA FALLS, ON CANADA 

Located close to the wine area of Niagara, this is a 160 

bed full service long term care facility designed in the 

“resort style”. Large corner terraces take advantage 

of long views and provide large outdoor spaces for 

residents, an entrance portico, or a functioning green 

house depending on where they are deployed on the 

building. A large, landscaped courtyard, provides a 

spacious venue for outdoor events, and a secure activity 

area for the physically or mentally challenged residents. 

39

Lakeshore Place 

Seniors Residence 

BURLINGTON, ON CANADA 

This design is the ideal retirement community set on 

the shores of Lake Ontario in Burlington. Wonderfully 

landscaped grounds frame a modern and elegant 

T-shaped structure, accented by walkways, gardens 

and gazebos, encouraging a healthy lifestyle. Taking its 

residents to heart, amenities such as the dining room, 

kitchen, craft and common rooms, lounges and a hair 

salon, are all situated on the ground floor. 

Vanderwell Heritage Place 

SLAVE LAKE, AB CANADA 

The Vanderwell Heritage Place project consists of a 

22-unit senior’s lodge complete with common dining, 

laundry, crafts and chapel facilities. The majority of the 

units are single occupancy and are designed with bed 

sitting areas with individual kitchenettes and baths. The 

building committee comprised several seniors and future 

residents of the lodge. Their input and commitment to 

the project was critical in designing the layout of the 

individual rooms and the entire lodge. Because they were 

involved in the design, when they became residents they 

viewed the lodge as their home, an attitude which spread 

to the other residents of the lodge. The approach and 

design were very successful and the client has retained 

IBI Group to design an addition of 14 units in two phases. 

41

Burton Manor 

BRAMPTON, ON CANADA 

Completed in 2002, Burton Manor is a 128 bed Seniors 

Assisted Living Residence in the growing community 

of Brampton, outside of Toronto. Designed on a corner 

property zoned for a strip mall, the residence presents a 

home-like image to a busy collector street while turning 

is atrium-style main entrance to a quiet landscaped entry 

court at the rear of the property. A tranquil courtyard 

provides a focus for common areas, while a pallet of 

brick, stucco and pitched roofs tie the residence into the 

surrounding single family residential community. 

Burton Manor Long Term Care Facility, Brampton 

The Henley House 

ST. CATHARINES, ON CANADA 

Set on a former school site within a residential 

neighbourhood, the two storey massing and 

residential detailing integrate with the adjacent 

houses while accommodating a 160 bed full service 

long term care facility. The plan contains two secure 

landscaped courtyards to enhance memory and 

care wings, and a central pavilion housing dining 

area and amenities. The main entrance features a 

residents café and lounge with a “cathedral ceiling”. 

43

Rosewood Gardens 

BAKERSFIELD, CA UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 

The skyline of Southwest Bakersfield consisted of 

sporadic low-rise housing and small commercial 

development. In 1972, the construction of Rosewood 

Gardens, a 9-story retirement housing & assisted living 

complex created a new progressive model. Architects 

utilized functional design components to create a 

development, who’s presence 37-years later, continues to 

be a contemporary landmark in the community. 

As the towering building meets the ground, contrasting 

steel trellises’, colonnades and privacy walls transition 

this vertical sentinel into a warm, human-scaled 

residential environment, while shielding lower parking 

from view.
