Time flies, and when young parents grow old, their vision and mobility may not be as sharp as before. They don't need a lot of money, but they do value their children's company and a warm, comfortable home. Whether or not you live with your parents, it's important to rethink the layout of their living spaces. The Chinese wardrobe network has gathered insights based on the daily habits of most elderly people, offering practical suggestions for creating a more suitable environment.
**Bedroom: Avoid Metal and Cool Tones**
The wardrobe should not be placed next to the bed, especially too close, as this can create a sense of pressure and disrupt sleep. It’s also recommended to avoid using too many metal items in the elderly’s bedroom, as metal tends to have cooler tones, which might not align with the warm and comforting atmosphere that older adults prefer.
**Study Room: Desk and Books Should Be Easy to Reach**
A desk is an essential piece of furniture in an elderly person’s space, especially if they enjoy reading or learning. A medium-sized desk is ideal, and the bookshelf should not be too high—preferably no more than two levels. If there are many books, they can be placed on the desk itself, with the side of the desk designed for easy access, making it more convenient for the elderly to use.
**Living Room: Round Corners and Suitable Heights**
Furniture in the living room should have rounded edges to reduce the risk of injury. It’s best to place furniture against the walls whenever possible. Choosing pieces that are as tall as a writing desk can help the elderly support themselves when standing up, promoting safety and independence.
By considering these design tips, you can create a more comfortable, safe, and welcoming space for your aging parents, helping them maintain their quality of life and dignity.
