Abstract
Contemporary block housing estates, apart from technical problems, face the new problem of an ageing society. These housing estates, built in the 1970s and 80s, were inhabited primarily by young people, typically families with children. Many years later, the children, after gaining independence, left their family dwellings, leaving their ageing parents. Studies show that these housing estates are currently largely inhabited by seniors, who often live alone. This paper presents a study performed on the large-panel housing estates, Popowice, in terms of how it satisfies the needs of seniors. The paper also presents examples of apartment designs that sanction the needs of seniors, including seniors with special needs.
