Design For An Ageing Population

The Royal Institute of British Architects has collected a vast amount of existing knowledge from architects, other built environment professionals and researchers about design for older people, including people with dementia.

Experts have written introductions for a number of the key themes for use in practice or as a starting point to explore the research.

This information has been compiled on its website under the heading Design For An Ageing Population, and is freely available at architecture.com
