The typology of this building is a Retirement Community, located in Zhengzhou, China. The building is a mixed-use mid-rise that includes the elderly center in the first two floors and the elderly apartments units for the rest. Human is the main aspect of the project. The architecture improves elderly life quality by analyzing the human behavior and create sense of place. China is stepping into the aging society rapidly and the project will help to explore a new way for the elderly support. | en_US |
