Özet:

The length of life, along with the progress in medicine, leads to the increased proportion of the general population of the elderly population. With the changing social structure, the housing and care of the increasing elderly population began to become one of the social problems, the care models taken by institutions were developed. While the number of institutional care facilities in which the elderly care is carried out is rapidly increasing, the quality of the area in which the service is offered as much as the service offered is also very important. Considering that the elderly people spend most of their time in closed/internal spaces, undesigned spaces in accordance with their expectations, lower the quality of life, while in well-designed corporate care spaces, the interaction established with the spaces supports the elderly users with both their psychological and physiological and physical possibilities. In this study, the results of the survey, which took place with a total of 250 elderly people who stayed in Izmir as an example, covered the subjects of perception, lighting, warm comfort and guidance, were evaluated. The results of the survey study that the participants evaluated both the area of corporate care they stayed and their expectations were combined with the information obtained from literature and made separate suggestions under the selected titles. The proposals are planned to contribute both to the design of old-friendly interiors and the preparation of other publications.
