Abstract
An increasingly aging population, information technology developments and shift to high-rise residential neighborhoods combined with lack of aged facilities have led recently to a specific type of residential development in Korea. They appear in the form of silver towns integrated with smart technologies and targeted specifically at the aging population. The silver towns are increasingly being conceived, designed and marketed as smart living environments for the elderly. This paper analyses selected silver towns to obtain insights from the elderly perspective about these developments and understand design challenges for future silver towns and smart technologies.Keywordsaged livingsmart technologiessmart environmentssilver townstechnology acceptance
