This is the first book to address the design needs of older people
in the outdoor environment. It provides information on design
principles essential to built environment professionals who want to
provide for all users of urban space and who wish to achieve
sustainability in their designs. Part one examines the changing
experiences of people in the outdoor environment as they age and
discusses existing outdoor environments and the aspects and
features that help or hinder older people from using and enjoying
them. Part two presents the six design principles for 'streets for
life' and their many individual components. Using photographs and
line drawings, a range of design features are presented at all
scales of the outdoor environment from street layouts and building
form to signs and detail. Part three expands on the concept of
'streets for life' as the ultimate goal of inclusive urban design.
These are outdoor environments that people are able to confidently
understand, navigate and use, regardless of age or circumstance,
and represent truly sustainable inclusive communities.
