Real Impact: Engineering Comfortable Living for Australia’s Senior Citizens

Over 20 years of giving back to those who gave so much to us.

What drives us? Engineering communities that allow our senior citizens to be comfortable and happy. At Northrop, our team works to enhance our clients’ vision and deliver projects that respond to the specific needs of each project. From differing market positions, to working through complex redevelopment in a live environment, we bring our experience to the table to get the right outcome.

With over 20 years of senior living experience, our team is invested in creating welcoming spaces that respond to the natural environment – through intelligent building services, sustainable design or efficient land development. No matter the challenge, our team is committed to achieving the best possible outcome.

Our team also draws on experience from residential buildings, bringing across current construction methodologies to ensure we’re getting the most value for your project. We also understand the importance of operational value, as many seniors living assets are built to hold, and bring a holistic approach to the building services and sustainability approach to these projects.

Senior Living Impacts

Integrated Sustainability Design

We work with our Sustainability team to identify the key indoor environment metrics and design services that respond to it.

Long-Term Perspective

With over 20 years working within the sector, we have the experience to understand what it takes to ensure a building lasts in function and form.

Cross-Pollinated Ideas

We bring Northrop skills and experience from outside the senior living sector to each project. Whether it is through optimised structural design for your high-rise ageing-in-place project, or efficient land development when looking at greenfield land lease sites, this cross pollination of ideas help drive superior outcomes.

This sector has given me opportunity to contribute back to the community and build relationships that have followed me through many roles and responsibilities. The connections we can create for people call me back to this work again and again.
