Villa Breda senior village<br />
Villa Breda senior village takes the opinions and perspectives<br />
of seniors into account from the very beginning<br />
of the design phase, <strong>for</strong> everything from services to<br />
experimental spaces and surroundings. It focuses on<br />
accessibility, holistic care and using different senses as a<br />
design driver. Questions asked include: how do seniors<br />
comprehend space through different senses? How to<br />
make use of contrasts? How to best place lighting <strong>for</strong><br />
people who spend most of their time in a wheelchair<br />
or bed? How can we support relationships between<br />
seniors living in a nursing home and their relatives<br />
and friends? How best to maintain a relationship with<br />
oneself?<br />
