Social housing renovation for ageing-in-place in the Netherlands: Synergising co-design and empathic design with virtual reality
With the increasing ageing population, many older adults still live in the generally designed housing stock, which could be ‘unsuitable’ for them. One effective way to enhance their quality of life and independence is to renovate existing housing. The development of innovative technologies (e.g. virtual reality) and design approaches (e.g. co-design) can provide new strategies for housing renovation practices. However, the knowledge of synergisin…
An interdisciplinary model for behaviour in residential buildings: Bridging social sciences and engineering approaches
In this paper, we develop a comprehensive behaviour model for residential buildings that considers the diversity among households. While existing behavioural theories from social and psychological sciences have been used in building research, they often lack technical detail, contextual aspects, and focus primarily on behavioural change. The authors propose an interdisciplinary theoretical model that integrates insights from behavioural science a…
A study on occupants’ behaviour, satisfaction, and experiences in a zero-energy renovation social housing project in the Netherlands
Smart home modification design strategies for ageing in place: A systematic review
This research explores current strategies and approaches directed to integrate innovative technologies in the home modification process to support independent living and ageing in place. The systematic review considered studies conducted from the perspective of architecture, smart technology, and gerontology. Scientific databases of related disciplines (e.g. Scopus, Web of Science, Engineer village, Google Scholar, Crossref) were searched and sup…
Designing for residents: Building monitoring and co-creation in social housing renovation in the Netherlands
Large differences between the expected and actual energy consumption have been found in energy efficient dwellings. Research has shown that these differences are partially caused by occupant behaviour. The financing and payback periods of low carbon technologies are often uncertain because of the impact of the occupants on building performance. This translates into a reluctance to invest in deep renovation projects. The goal of this design-inclus…
