CO-LIVING Proposal for an Innovative Age-Friendly Cohabitation in Aler’s Estate [by Ilaria Bianchi, 2019–2020]
The thesis explores innovative co-living models designed for older adults (65+), aiming to reduce isolation, encourage social interaction and provide a supportive environment without removing residents from their familiar neighborhood. By examining existing co-living practices and relevant case studies, the project identifies spatial strategies and shared services suited to elderly users with mild vulnerabilities. Applied to an Aler-owned housing estate, the proposal introduces typological transformations and common spaces to promote active, intergenerational living while supporting independent lifestyles.
