Humankind's increased longevity and the younger generation's lack of time and space to adequately care for a growing elderly population have given rise to an expanding architectural field: Homes for Senior Citizens. In addition to a great degree of functionality, these buildings require medical facilities, adapted furniture, and attractive, comfortable living facilities that provide protection of privacy and foster community life. Projects featured show a particular sensitivity to all of these criteria, plus the therapeutic value of natural light and open spaces.
