Through on-site interviews, inquiries about population databases, and literatures on sociology & psychology, I generalized the physical and psychological needs that the elderly will face in aging urban society into the desire for "role recognition", which refers to two aspects: family role (lack of family companionship) and social role (lack of social function).
Therefore, when carrying out specific project planning and design, fully consider the tea culture characteristics of the site and the use needs of people of different age groups, use the slope to deal with the height difference of the site, put in interesting public rest spaces, and create indoor and outdoor healing gardens , to help the elderly regain their roles in the family and society.
