Case studies from a diverse range of geographies are examined including Portugal, Singapore, India, New Zealand, UK, Sweden, Belgium and the US. Chapters are grounded in evidence-based research including substantial primary data and post-occupancy evaluation, specifically the evaluation of architecture’s ‘social performance’. Projects highlight high-rise \/ medium-rise as an emerging and successful typology in accommodating residential and care needs of older people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking a broad, interdisciplinary approach, this book will be a helpful reference not only for architects, designers and urban planners but also for students and practitioners in health and social care, gerontology\/ageing, and medical sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56919757750646,"sku":"9781032571188","price":50.32,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_39232593.jpg?v=1767853674","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032571188-architectures-of-ageing-in-place","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
