1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND 1.1.1 HISTORY OF OLD AGE HOMES Historical India has been a land where elders have always found a revered place in the society strong family supported system existed as a bulwark against uncertainties of the old age. The increased speed due to modernization, urbanization and industrialization has led to: 

Break down of the joinery system.

Lack of security and authority of elder.

The aged prefer mutual exchange and are reluctant to accept assistance from the children.

Family can provide protection for the elderly only to a limited extent.

Manton males wouldn’t like to live with their daughters.

Intern perception relation change after the death of spouse of elders, those of the widows are unwilling to live with their married son.

Thus change in inter-personal economic deprivation, les social support, utilization are some of the important concerned problem in common which has bearing on their housing needs. The studied revealed – 70% of the respondent lives with their children, 30% of the aged lives as a problem group. Some reputed institutions have classified the problem group into four categories: 

Aged person- single or couple, well to do but childless.

Elderly comprised of single or couple whose children can’t work.

Elderly comprised of well to do children but stay abroad and

6


parents can’t be settled with them as they aged and health concern. 

Aged having less income, and no one to look after and so on.

Housing for elderly began in939A.D. In the English alms houses, which were provided by the Church and clustered around the church and its attendant buildings. While this early example shows housing for elderly beginning with financial support from a source other than the residents of the housing. The advent of the private funding for housing or housing being paid for by the residents is a relatively new phenomenon. In India, the first home for the aged is the one started by “little sisters of the poor” (1950) in Calcutta. Although generational coresidence continues to the dominant form of housing and care for Indian elders and only 1% live in old-age homes, the numbers and types of thesis homes are growing. Help age is a non-governmental and non-profit organisation which takes care of the senior citizens and aged population of India. India has over 1000 old age homes.

• No age restricted institutions for long term-care. • But elders ended their days in almhouses. • Woment's and church groups began to establish special homes for elderly. • No. of elderly who found shelter in these institutions were limited. • Majority: widowed and single women • Old age home operated to differentate "worthy" old of a particular religion or ethnic group from most needy and destitute of the aged population. • Alms-house elderly population increased to 33% and further to 67% • Alms-ouses a symbol of failure and desapear. • Poor houses- a word of hate and loathing. • Clearly revealed the inablilty of elderly to succeed the industrial world.

• Medicine provided additional growth to nursing homes. • No. of nursing homes grew by 40%- private industry simulated. • By 1979, despite the ability of government homes to provide care, 79% of all institutionalized elderly persons resided in commercially run homes.

• Nursing homes had become a billion indusry, paid largely by Medicare; and although the elderly individuals between 65 and 74 reside in such institutions, the proportion of those over 85 increased to 85%

1.1.2 WHY OLD AGE HOMES ARE REQUIRED? For the elderly & senior people this is very important issue because you need utmost medical care & look after when you grow old whether you are in India or anywhere in the world. There are many reasons for looking for old age homes / retirement care homes in India such as migration or location of children due to their work / lack of time in youngsters / neglect / family problems etc. The concept of the old age home has become quite familiar today, but often for the wrong reasons. The idea seems to evoke a sigh of pity which is uncalled for. Firstly, it has been ascertained by social surveys that there need not be any stigma attached to the residents of old age homes and neither do they require our pity. Secondly, many parents of middle class families are neither neglected nor abandoned by their children. 2011 report by Jones Lang LaSalle Meghraj (JLLM) “In India about 7.5% of the population is above 60 years. There are over 81 million elderly people. The figure will rise to 177 million by 2025 and by 2050 it will be about 240 million Life expectancy has increased from 41 years in 1951 to 64 years today, hundreds of old age homes have sprung up in India.” 1.1.3 WHO ARE ELDERLY? The person who has attained the age of 60 and above is an old person/senior citizen People may be considered old when they become grandparents when they begin to do less work or become professionally inactive after retirement.

1.3. AIM 

To create space for old underprivileged natives of the country with social responsive spaces catering to a symbiosis relation between the old and society.

 To design a dynamic atmosphere that encourages the creative spirit by varied natural illumination and a play of lights and shadows in the exterior as well as interior of the building.

  1.4. OBJECTIVES • To integrate the outdoor and indoor spaces considering the functional aspects. • To study the traditional architectural expression and its contemporary aspects • To develop a barrier free design. • To provide properly arranged learning and practising areas. • To provide a state of the art resource centre inside the campus. • To develop a design that is capable of expansion in future. • To take care of usage of local and low embodied energy materials. • To make homely feel spaces having both physical as well as psychological effect to the end users. Architectural design can help to create interacting spaces for old age group along with the maintenance of individual, group privacy and independence. • To use the techniques of green building, creating good and healthy environment.

1.5. RATIONALE (Reasons for Choosing The Topic):India has rich culture and families bonding are very strong. The old parents are well cared by their children. But there are people who don’t have anyone to care for them and often the stays near the temples and pray for the rest of their life. For these people, an accommodation and care is the need. Old age home can be a solution to their need. Old age home will be providing the older people the care they need that is not feasible at their home and due to works and other reasons the family members may not be able to give the required care. Therefore. OLD AGE HOME would basically serve the public and provide better places for deprived people of the country.

1.6. SIGNIFICANCE:India had approximately 104 million senior citizens aged 60 and above in 2012. This number is expected to double by 2030. 53 million females 51 million males By 2050, it is likely to reach approximately 320 million, constituting 20% of the country’s total population. As per the findings by National Family Health Survey in 2005-06 (NFHS-3), every three Indian household out of five – or about 63% - are nuclear families. Currently there are approximately 30–35 senior living projects in the country. Unfortunately, this represents a major shortfall – they accommodate only 0.0001% of the target segment (India’s senior citizens). It is only after witnessing the high acceptance rate of senior living projects in North and South India that developers began training their sights on the western and eastern regions of India, predominantly targeting tier 2 and tier 3 cities. Between 60 and 70% of independent and assisted living consumers rank the quality of 12


community itself as their top priority. For those consumers, affordability comes in second place followed by the community’s neighborhood. For senior apartment’s consumers, however, affordability is most often the top priority, which makes sense given the shorter list of amenities and community services included in the rent. A recent World Health Organization report reviews evidence that simply living near a public park is good for cardiovascular and mental health, especially for older adults. Population Growth From 5.6% in 1961 the proportion has increased to 8.6% in 2011, for males it was marginally lower at 8.2% , for females it was 9.0%. As regards rural and urban areas 71% of elderly population resides in rural areas while 29 % is in urban areas. In the age-group of 60-64 years, 76% persons were married while 22% were widowed. Remaining 2% were either never married or divorced.

Site justification Hot semi-arid climate bordering with tropical wet and dry (Aw) with average temperatures ranging between 19 to 33 °C. The monsoon lasts from June to October, with moderate rainfall and temperatures ranging from 22 to 28 °C.

2. LITERATURE STUDY AND DATA COLLECTION

2.1. HOME FOR DEPENDENT ELDERYLY PEOPLE AND THEIR NURSING HOMES:Architects-Dominique Coulon & Associés Location-Rue De La Source, 14290 Orbec, France Architects In Charge-Dominique Coulon, Benjamin Rocchi Architects Assistants-David Romero-Uzeda, Olivier Nicollas Area-5833.0 Sqm Project Year-2015 Manufacturers-Otis, Patrizio, Durand, Revnor, Acd Ernoult, Sanichauffage, Seo, Mbi, R2c Construction Site Supervision-Emilie Brichard, Jean Scherer Structural Engineer-Batiserf Ingénierie Mechanical Plumbing Engineer-BET G.Jost Electrical Engineer-BET G.Jost Cost Estimato-E3 Économie Acoustics-Euro Sound Project Kitchen Expert-Ecotral Landscape-Bruno Kubler This care and retirement home has been built in the heart of the Normandy bocage near the village of Orbec. 

The building follows the sloping curve of the hillside, and is visible from the valley.

Each of the living units fits into one section of the building, and all are connected to a south-facing street, backed by the hill.

This arrangement gives views through the building from one side to the other, with light punctuating the traffic routes and achieving maximum variety.

The colour red destructures the space and adds dynamic. We have avoided using the conventional colours of the hospital environment

The building has been designed to enhance the living and walking areas. Its strength lies in its relationship with the landscape. 15




To reduce the visual impact of this imposing building, we felt it preferable to divide it up.



We achieved the desired effect by using the colour green, with the result that the building both blends into the larger landscape and reflects the rural nature of the site.



The under-faces of the overhangs and the white walls of the base produce a feeling of

lightness
