New models to live in a community
Topic of the month in Roca Gallery January: “An Aging World”
A view on architecture “Favorable sorrounding for the elderly” writed by Albert Vitaller Santiró and Laia Isern Meix.
“The new proposals should be designed based on each person’s reality. There should be conventional housing designed inclusively for any type of users and specialized housing where users can have an active and independent lifestyle with the support of some services, depending on the needs of each individual. In the new accommodation models, what is offered to the person is not a room but a place in which to live, orienting the designs towards the combination of the own home concept with that of care home.”
