| dc.description.abstract | With the largest generation coming close
to the retirement age, there is a high demand
for new communities aimed at appealing
to the baby boomers and the future generations.
Throughout this project, elements such as
personal comfort, independance, and other
senior lifestyle conditions will be explored. One
main element in this project will be creating a
“community” that allows the residents to know
eachother and get together with communal
events.
A well developed way of intergrating the social
and design aspects of addressing the boomers
issues is using the Cohousing concept. I would
allow the independant lifestyle of the resident,
yet at the same time allow the social activity
that they crave. | en_US |
