| dc.description.abstract | Young and old being the feeble part of our family, requires extra help from everyone in the family and also in the society. Unfortunately, often old people are outcast from the family because of over demanding need of care, forced to seek shelter in old age homes. On the other hand, many children who lose parents or are abandoned by their parents at a young age, share the same fate as the aged people. People require constant care when they become old, because of their gradual deterioration of their physical and mental health, loss of cognitive and sensing power. Sometimes they face significant psychological changes due to loneliness even if they are physically healthy and independent. Similarly lack of guidance, education, and care compels the orphaned, destitute children into aimless or misguided life, eventually affecting the overall advancement of the society as well. Instead, with proper help they can build a bright future for themselves and become a valuable part of the society, which they deserve, and it is desired for the wellness of the society. The Goal is to design a space by establishing the synergy between the aged community and the young orphan community through a Symbiotic process. The design is about building an ecosystem following the intergenerational concept, where both the communities find their joy by living in harmony. The design focused on both the mental and physical health of the residents with the help of integrated indoor and outdoor activity, educational facilities with the living facility, allowing them to experience social inclusivity and acceptance through the interaction with the local community. | en |
