Upgrading path of aging friendly functional layout in residential spaces based on biology and computer software engineering

With the acceleration of global population aging and the rising proportion of China's elderly population, the aging design of residential space is of great significance to improve the quality of life of the elderly.From a biological perspective, elderly people have special needs for living space due to physical decline, sensory degradation, and cognitive changes, while traditional living spaces have obvious deficiencies in spatial scale, functional zoning, and environmental adaptation.This study is based on the biological characteristics of elderly people, deeply integrating computer and software engineering technologies, and proposing optimisation strategies from three dimensions: spatial layout, furniture and facility configuration, and environmental creation to address the existing problems in traditional residential spaces.The research aims to improve the convenience of daily activities and indoor environment comfort for the elderly, effectively enhancing their living safety, convenience, and comfort.

Abstract

With the acceleration of global population aging and the rising proportion of China's elderly population, the aging design of residential space is of great significance to improve the quality of life of the elderly.From a biological perspective, elderly people have special needs for living space due to physical decline, sensory degradation, and cognitive changes, while traditional living spaces have obvious deficiencies in spatial scale, functional zoning, and environmental adaptation.This study is based on the biological characteristics of elderly people, deeply integrating computer and software engineering technologies, and proposing optimisation strategies from three dimensions: spatial layout, furniture and facility configuration, and environmental creation to address the existing problems in traditional residential spaces.The research aims to improve the convenience of daily activities and indoor environment comfort for the elderly, effectively enhancing their living safety, convenience, and comfort.
