dc.description.abstract | The focus of this research is improving the well-being and happiness of the elderly in terms of the design and development of their indoor living spaces in harmony with nature. Multiple scientific studies have pointed out the benefits and importance of nature for people, especially for children and older populations. These benefits (increased participation in physical activities, improved mental health and cognitive function and an increase in social interaction) found through access to nature are key ingredients to well-being during ageing. As our population ages rapidly, and at the same time, the majority of people live in cities since urbanisation is continuing worldwide, it is important to provide and foster reconnection with nature for the senior members of our communities. Today’s cities suffer from many health and environmental problems. In recent years, the growing awareness of sustainability and climate change issues has made it even more apparent that bringing nature into our homes is essential. Bringing nature indoors causes people to feel happier, healthier, calmer, and, at the same time more energetic and optimistic about their lives. Natural environments also help to improve sleeping patterns, reduce pain, speed up recovery and even increase longevity. This research deals with different design strategies, principles, scales, concepts and patterns of biophilic design for elderly people, as well as their different benefits for health and well-being, with the aim of improving the design of dwelling environments in urban areas. The research also stimulates further discussions about the question of how bringing nature indoors through design (of interior/ architectural spaces, furniture) can improve the well-being of the elderly and how these can enable them to undertake activities that contribute to their well-being. It means creating a sensitive and responsive design that highlights a) a visual connection to nature, b) pulpability and soundness of nature and c) nurturing a sense of place, a community in which the role of aesthetics is crucial for behavioural change. | sr |
