| dc.description.abstract | Age segregation is a rising problem in the United States. Since the early 1900s, this
country has relied on age as a driving force in determining rules and regulations. Because of this,
older and younger populations continue to face a divide that brings negative consequences for
both generations. The formation of stereotypes and prejudices have formed on different age
groups has and will continue to lead to reduced understanding and empathy of generations. This
thesis project proposes intergenerational shared building sites as a solution to bring together the young and old to foster relationships and bridge the gap that has formed between these two
generations through the building design and program. The typology of an intergenerational
daycare center would provide daily care to older adults and young children while providing
spaces that allow for learning and collaboration between the participants. | en_US |
