therapeutic function of architecture - Opis:
- The subject of creating a living space for the elderly, taking into consideration their specific needs result- ing from functional disability in the context of the ever growing population of elderly people is one of the key challenges that modern architecture has to face today. The article aims to present the physical environment of geriatric care facilities based on the example of homes for the elderly as a system of functional and behavioral stimuli in the context of ergonomic and sociological solutions. It has been assumed that there exists a number of spatial determinants which may become elements supporting the elderly in the specific living environment of a home for the elderly. Functional solutions are important to consider but so are the adaptive capabilities and needs of the elderly, who are at the stage of their life when the stability of living environment and personal safety are crucial. Therefore improving the standard of technical equipment and modernizing the living space will not automatically lead to the improvement of quality of life of old people. It is also necessary for the designers to be aware that they need to consider the spatial competence of the target users, the importance of human capital senior citizens represent in our society and the standardization of cultural norms contained in the living practice of the elderly. The above constitute the factors which make it possible to organize the use of living space properly.
