At Home With Growing Old Presents: “Intergenerational Living” Architechture for Community

Limited Space Available. RSVP by emailing sstadler@AtHomeWithGrowingOld.com

Both aging baby boomers and families who want their children to grow up in age diverse environments are increasingly interested in forming intergenerational communities yet housing design and development opportunities are lacking. Prof. Sieple-Coates will talk about what architecture can do to provide such opportunities, present examples of realized projects and ideas from her graduate students.

Prof. Siepl-Coates has taught at Kansas State University since 1984. Students in her gradate-level architecture design studios have been studying and developing design ideas for intergenerational living. Most recently her research has focused on environments for active living and palliative care architecture.

This event is being sponsored by the Center for Accessible Technology and Stradler Architecture.
