Résumé:
We are not only living longer than our grandparents, but we are also working longer and remaining more active and enterprising than they did. Thus for many today the second half of life os marked by a broad and varied range of activities that call for freedom of action, whether one has a disability or other limitation or not. What types of housing will make it possible to shape this ever longer and more important phase of our lives in accord with our wishes and needs? In addition to the desire of most older people to remain in their homes, we are also seeing the emergence of new and novel communal types of housing, such as shared apartments, houses, and housing developments; integrated residential communities; assisted living; and group homes. Against this backdrop, noted authors consider various aspects of the second phase of life. In addition, realized projects in Switzerland and Germany are presented and analysed in terms of their practical feasibility. Living Concepts is edited by the ETH Wohnforum, an interdiciplinary research group housed in the Faculty of Architecture of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. It presents selected themes from the broad field of housing and is aimed at both specialist readers and those with a general interest in culture.
