ABSTRACT

With the deepening of the aging degree in our country, how to make old-age buildings better serve the elderly and solve the problems of living and old-age for the elderly is gradually becoming a hot topic of concern in the construction industry. Combining the concept of green building and the particularity of old-age buildings, this paper discusses the current problems faced by old-age buildings. Through the rational application of green building design methods to the design of old-age buildings, a preliminary analysis and summary of green design strategies for old-age buildings are summarized. Taking the old-age building as the starting point, this paper expounds the connotation of the optimal design of the old-age building space. Combining the principles of comfort and livability, efficient use of space, green passive design, etc., the methods of optimal design of old-age building space care is studied from three aspects: space configuration, visual effect, light energy and wind energy demand.
