| Popis: | [EN] We explore the possibilities of color to improve the quality of living in existing residential buildings for the elderly. We show some of the interior design projects developed by scholars enrolled in the Master in Architecture in Valencia who participated in the ¿Gesmed ideas competition: Color in residential buildings for the elderly¿. Every color project started from the analysis of the needs detected in current spaces like disorientation in big size rooms and a particularly concerning general lack of cosines. Together with these initial needs, the chromatic resources explored by other artists and architects in noteworthy buildings were analyzed to guide the final formal solution. The goal is to help elder people to feel like at home and maintain their memories by using simple interior design interventions. This paper is framed within the activities of the research project Modifications of the Visual Comfort in Residential Centers to improve the Quality of Life for the Elderly founded by the Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad de España. |
