dc.description.abstractWith 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
