Este trabalho tem como finalidade perceber o tipo de habitação numa arquitectura que o seu público-alvo é o idoso.
Sendo o tema principal “envelhecer no século XXI” o subtema da dissertação procura de uma maneira sóbria enquadrar-se no tema principal e no conceito arquitectónico utilizado para a realização do projecto. Luz e Textura foi o subtema escolhido e que apresenta duas palavras que vivem da arquitectura e a arquitectura vive delas.
A partir da análise e investigação de alguns livros, ficou-se a perceber o que implica o estado de envelhecimento no homem e sobretudo do modo como vivem a cidade. E mais importante ainda, o problema do envelhecimento da população para a economia e para o estado social do país, e as consequências que isso trás para as cidades e que se verifica na arquitectura.
Deste modo, com este trabalho, permite-se verificar algumas formas de ultrapassar a problemática do habitar na velhice, sem o recurso á utilização de instalações especializadas para tal efeito, os lares, ou a máquina habitacional dos idosos.
The goal of this work is to understand which is the type of housing preference in an architecture view, where the “elderly” is audience target. Being the main theme about "aging in the XXI century", the sub-theme of the paper is looking for a sober way to fit the main theme and architectural concept used for the project. Light and texture was the sub-theme chosen that presents two unique words that live from architecture and the architecture live from those words. From the analysis and research of some books, it became clear what implies the state of aging in man and especially the way they live the city. Even more importantly is the problem of population aging that resents on the economy, on the social state of the country and the consequences that these brings to the cities and reflect in architecture. So, this work allows checking out some ways to overcome the problems of dwelling in old age without the need to use specialized facilities for this purpose, households, or the machine housing of the elderly.
