Two-fold framework for the project through cooperation and
architecture:
interdisciplinary work and integration of the results from all subprojects
This Subproject, located in the Center for
Technology and Society, takes on a framing function for the entire project:
- Coordination of the interdisciplinary work (in both research and organizational
terms),
- Integration of the results from the various subprojects from the perspective of
(interior) architecture.
Coordination
The coordinating function of this subproject involves finding a
form appropriate to both the complex theme of the project and interdisciplinary
cooperation.
It creates common ground for the subprojects by mediating the disciplinary perspectives.
In terms of the results themselves, this consists essentially in bringing together the
results from the deficit analyses and requirement lists from the various subprojects. In
organizational terms, its main task lies in arranging frequent meetings of the research
teams, taking protocol of the discussions, and documenting the work in progress.
Architecture
The integrating function of the subproject involves the compilation of results
from the subprojects from the perspective of (interior) architecture.
Goal here is an exchange in two directions. Which new requirements for architects are
suggested by the developers of household technology fitted to the needs of senior
citizens? The same holds in reverse: which requirements raised by those who plan
senior-friendly appliances and systems do the developers of household technology need to
consider? What we hope to achieve is unimpeded planning and construction, and that
measures for home adaptation reflect a heightened awareness of the kind of (technological)
support older people need to maintain their independence in the home. Currently such
measures primarily follow planning and construction provisions for the handicapped and
those in need of care.
