BUILDING TYPE Elderly Housing
USER
Elderly
BACKGROUND The demand of the elderly housing is rapid increase, more elderly pursue better living environment, The building are use the concept of Ageing in Place (AIP) to design ,aiming at helping the elderly to enjoy their life safely and comfortably. The concept of AIP is to empower the elderly to live in their own home and community as long as possible. We propose the following some methods to help them to achieve AIP: 1. A suitable Living Environment:Provide professional consultation in housing and related services by meeting the changing needs of the elderly throughout the ageing process. 2. Safety Living:Help the elderly to be aware of potential environmental hazards and risky behaviors, and to prevent home accidents.

SOCIAL PROBLEMS OF ELDERLY
More than 40% of elderly people living alone tend to have depression, of which 48% is due to the long-term loneliness of the elderly living alone caused. The social and their children always neglect the psychological health of elderly. Also,they do not understand their own mental health and it makes them to suffer psychological crisis which has seriously affected the quality of life of the elderly. Due to gradually withdraw from society, to participate in group activities less and less, more elderly lack of communication with the outside world, it is easy to close themselves cause loneliness and depression.

“Form follows function” The principle is that the shape of a building or object should be primarily based upon its intended function or purpose. This concept impression on me. In the new genaration, the outlook of the building is not the first priority to decide the shape of building. The internal space which is the main factor to consider how to affect people’s behavior. Architecture is study the relationship between human and environment. lt always remind me the best design is not to depend on elevation how cool and how beauty, that should include well space planning and focus on how to improve human’s life.

HONG KONG CLUB CASE STUDY | SECOND GENERATION | 2012
32 | 33
BACKGROUND
The Hong Kong Club was established in 1846. It provides commercial affairs and high-level food catering. The members of The Hong Kong Club were rich and an introducer was needed to join the club. The fee of entering the club, annual fee and the cost of buying the bond established by the club was expensive. At the age of colony, Hong Kong Club was a place for entertainment and social only for the British. Besides, the Chinese was forbidden to enter the club.
Architectural Style
We are now studying the 2nd generation of Hong Kong Club.At that time, this club was a mark of Statue Square, because this building sponsored by many wealthy, so it became a non-official place for the businessman interflow with the government official. The club building was designed by Palmer & Turner, which is a architect & engineering Limited, and the building was completed in July 1897. It was four storey. The Hong Kong Club Building was a renaissance style architecture. So, it had the order (arch and column), dome, also the form like a square and many rectangularity element, if you saw from the plan, this building was symmetrical.
34 | 35
Domes
The dome is used frequently, both as a very large structural feature that is visible from the exterior, and also as a means of roofing smaller spaces where they are only visible internally. Domes had been used only rarely in the Middle Ages, but after the success of the dome in Brunelleschi’s design for the Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore and its use in Bramante’s plan for St. Peter's Basilica (1506) in Rome, the dome became an indispensable element in church architecture and later even for secular architecture, such as Palladio's Villa Rotonda.
Pediment
A pediment is an element in classical, neoclassical and baroque architecture, and derivatives therefrom, consisting of a gable, originally of a triangular shape, placed above the horizontal structure of the entablature, typically supported by columns. The tympanum, or triangular area within the pediment, was often decorated with relief sculpture depicting scenes from Greek and Roman mythology or allegorical figures.
Columns and Pilasters
Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corinthian and Composite. The orders can either be structural, supporting an arcade or architrave, or purely decorative, set against a wall in the form of pilasters. During the Renaissance, architects aimed to use columns, pilasters, and entablatures as an integrated system. One of the first buildings to use pilasters as an integrated system was in the Old Sacristy (1421–1440) by Brunelleschi.
Interior Details
In the Mannerist period the “Palladian” arch was employed, using a motif of a high semi-circular topped opening flanked with two lower square-topped openings. Windows are used to bring light into the building and in domestic architecture, to give views. Stained glass, although sometimes present, is not a feature.
