"Empower and be empowered"
Rapid urbanisation has contributed to the increasing prevalence of high-density high-rise housing (HDHRH) as a common urban typology worldwide. While HDHRH presents an efficient solution for land use in densely populated areas, it also introduces distinct challenges to residents' health and well-being, including potential social isolation and environmental stress. Existing research has highlighted the potential for community engagement to correla…
Recreational well-being and the neglected older adult play
While age-friendly initiatives increasingly recognise the importance of play for recreational well-being in later life, its conceptualisation and the specific mechanisms driving it remain significantly underexplored, particularly among female older adults (FOAs). Addressing this critical gap, our study focuses on FOAs in Hong Kong’s high-density public housing estates (PHEs), a vital yet overlooked demographic in urban ageing research. Drawing on…
Trapped by social discrimination or emotional fragility? A mixed-method analysis of ageing-in-place older widows' spatial exclusion in public rental housing
“Ageing in place” is a global strategy for managing demographic change, whilst its implementation in dense urban environments can confront spatial constraints. For older widows in public rental housing, intersecting disadvantages place them at a pronounced risk of spatial exclusion, yet the mechanisms driving this process remain underexplored. This paper develops and tests a theoretical model to explain the psychosocial pathways from personal vul…
Older Adults’ Social Lives in In-Between Space in High-Rise, High-Density Housing Estates
Neighbourhood impacts on older adults’ social isolation and loneliness are gaining global concern. High-rise, high-density housing environments can both support and constrain social lives, yet their role in shaping different forms of social ties remains unclear. Guided by Person-Environment Fit (P-E Fit) theory, this study examines how neighbourhood in-between spaces shape older adults’ social ties in a Hong Kong housing estate through semi-struc…
Rethinking micro-level spatial rationalities
The impact of microscale environmental features on older adults’ recreational activities in shared spaces of high-density residential neighbourhoods
The challenges associated with urban population ageing have underscored the importance of recreation for sustaining well-being in later life, yet the role of neighbourhood microscale design in influencing recreational opportunities has been overlooked. In high-density contexts, shared spaces in residential neighbourhoods are especially important for older adults, however, existing age-friendly frameworks often lack the granularity required to inf…

Age-friendly spatial design for residential neighbourhoods in a compact city
Despite worldwide concerns about ageing-in-place and age-friendly environments in cities, frameworks for age-friendly residential neighbourhoods—particularly planned housing estates dominant in Asia—remain underdeveloped. This study addressed this gap by developing a responsive, adaptable, and scale-specific framework for age-friendly spatial design of old residential neighbourhoods. We applied participatory research methods to study an old priva…
