Design for Aging: International Case Studies of Building and Program

This book brings together 26 case studies from around the world and describes how each scheme has addressed the needs of its residents regardless of wide variations in design, geography, cultural factors, medical needs, capital cost, and other factors.

Included in the UK examples is the DH funded scheme in St Helens, Heald Farm Court - previously a HAPPI category winner of the UK Housing Design Award. Copies can be ordered at: http://eu.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470946725,descCd-buy.html (opens new window)
