Abstract:
The post-war generation in Finland, as in many Western countries, has reached senior age and is currently in retirement. We have more ageing people than ever and we thus need new concepts for caring for them. Senior citizens dream of a healthy home to live in, high quality and accessibility, a feeling of comfort and safety and staying active despite ageing. The question is how architecture could bring these contents into their lives. Wood as a construction material has several known positive properties and using logs as material for senior houses create a healthy environment. The aim of this t
