Deb Deck-Suarez's Blog

After all these weeks of investigation it is difficult to think it is time to look back and make sense of all in a holistic way.

In One Life, One Neighborhood and the Accessible In-Between the author tried to create a relationship between housing the elderly and the design of neighborhoods. The context of the thesis work was based in the amount of people turning sixty years old in the next years and their determination to stay active and independent.
