Title

Enabling Elderly: Age-Related Biological Changes and Designing for Independence

Abstract

The world population prospects indicate a progressively increasing number of elderly persons, such that 15.9% of the world population will be above 65 years of age by the year 2050 according to the projected population prospects of the world by UN report, 2019. Elderly services, health-care facilities, inclusive built-environments and housing for elderly will be of demand in near future. A need to understand ageing process and associated functional decline is established in order to design for the increasingly growing elderly population. The current study aims to review existing literature about ageing, age-related biological changes, and associated functional decline in elderly persons and to identify design guidelines for application in residential-environments, to enable elderly for independent living. The present study bridges two domains of knowledge, namely health and design. The study provides an easy reference of design guidelines, as a response to age-related challenges and associated functional decline in elderly persons.

Key Words

Ageing process, Age-related biological changes, residential design for elderly, inclusive design, ageing in place.
