COLLECTIVE KNOWLEDGE
We are a collective community of employee owners who produce award-winning architecture and exceptional places where people live. It has been our privilege to be collaborating since 1986. And while design trends have come, gone, and some have surged again, one thing has remained: our commitment to design and create exceptional places where people live. Why do we do what we do? Because we deeply believe in the values highlighted above. It’s the heartbeat behind our community. It’s what allows us to truly call ourselves FORUM.
A Note from Leadership
As the complexity of a design problem increases, so too does the requisite resolve, aptitude and expertise. The design of living environments is what drives Forum, a singular focus honed through decades of consistently demonstrating value for our developer clients.
We are confident that our team of talented professionals can not only make your project vision a reality, but you will enjoy the process more than you previously thought possible. We invite you to learn more about us on the following pages, and we personally look forward to getting to know you better through this project and hopefully many more to follow.
Kind Regards,
Andrew Roark, Jeff Suchan, and Katie Trentley

PROVIDENCE MAITLAND // ALF + MEMORY CARE
Providence Living at Maitland was originally built as a charter school for the adjacent Roth Family Jewish Community Center. Due to low enrollment, the school building was sold to Providence Senior Living, rezoned, and renovated with a memory care focus. The cornerstone of Providence Living at Maitland is life-centered care which informed some of the main project objectives: detaching and egressing both buildings, organizing facades to be more residential and welcoming, and increasing natural light and views. Community amenities include a salon, health club for exercise and therapy, art studio and craft room, movie theater, aviaries on both floors, resident kitchen with cooking demonstrations, private dining room for family gatherings, respite stay accommodations, an outdoor courtyard with butterfly gardens, walking paths, covered patio with seating, courtyard-to-table herb garden, second-floor screen patio overlooking the courtyard, and more.
