Abstract
Elderly Dwelling Neighbourhood for Ageing” focuses on designing a supportive, safe, and inclusive residential environment tailored to the needs of older adults. The concept emphasizes accessibility, comfort, and independence through age-friendly housing, barrier-free design, and proximity to essential services such as healthcare, recreation, and social spaces. By fostering community interaction and reducing isolation, the neighbourhood promotes physical well-being and mental health. Integrating green spaces, walkability, and sustainable features, the design aims to create a dignified and engaging living environment that enhances the quality of life for the ageing population.
