    Involving the elderly in the design process
    (Taylor & Francis, 1998) Demirbilek (Saritabak), O.; Demirkan, H.
    Based on the concept of'aging in place', a prescriptive model is proposed, aiming at the creation of a usable, safe and attractive built environment where the elderly residents are actively involved in the design process through collaboration sessions. Quality Function Deployment (QFD) has been adapted to develop an evaluation and translation method for the collected data of the elderly end-users.
