About this item

Aging is a gift that we receive with life - and in New Aging, the architect Matthias Hollwich outlines smart, simple ideas to help us experience it that way. New Aging invites us to take everything we associate with aging - the loss of freedom and vitality, the cold and sterile nursing homes, the boredom - and throw it out the window. As an architect, Matthias Hollwich is devoted to finding ways in which we can shape our living spaces and communities to make aging a graceful and fulfilling aspect of our lives. Now he has distilled his research into a collection of simple, visionary principles - brought to life with bright, colorful illustrations - that will inspire you to think creatively about how you can change your habits and environments to suit your evolving needs as you age.
