Title of the article | Methodological foundations of the formation of architectural spaces for the residence of elderly people |
Abstract. | This study is aimed at forming a systematic approach to the design of housing for the elderly, taking into account the necessary services for them. Based on the experience of creating a system of medical and cultural and household care, it is necessary to identify the features of the organization of the elderly persons residence. The aim of the work was to create a methodology for the formation of a complete environment for people over 74 years old based on the typological features of objects for the provision of assistance and care. To achieve this goal, tasks were set to clarify the typology and factors that affect the spatial solutions of houses for the elderly, to establish the mutual influence between the model of assistance and the principles of housing design, taking into account the necessary readaptation of a person in old age. As a result of the study, the following groups of factors were identified that affect the basic methods of forming a living environment for the elderly; typological types of housing that take into account the entire range of their services. The study suggests the principles of designing a home for elderly people based on a readaptation service model. The obtained research results allow us to deduce evaluation criteria for existing or projected facilities for the living conditions of elderly people. Taking into account the factors influencing the formation of an elderly persons life environment implies a change in the quality of architectural and design solutions, and, possibly, the regulatory and recommendation base. Also, the significance of the results obtained consists in the systematic design modeling of the residential environment for the elderly, which allows us to substantiate the accepted version of architecture. |
