Summary:The increase in quality of life has caused the number of elderly people in Indonesia to tend to increase. Against this background and supported by health, economic and social factors that follow, the need for housing is a problem for many elderly population, especially for elderly people without relatives or families living together. With a variety of activities that needed to be carried out by the elderly, housing facilities are needed that can support, accommodate and meet these needs. Elderly home facilities are one solution to this problem. In some communities, the image of nursing homes is still not good, so it is necessary to design nursing homes that makes a positive and pleasant impression. The design of residential facilities for the elderly for this final project focuses on elderly women living in Bandung, by adopting the homey concept so as to produce a positive and pleasant impression.
