An alternative way to promote our built environment : more reasonable way to realize the Baby Boomers’ urban living

Calculating the numbers of people, their age, and income demographic in our future
not only gives the idea of how people’s lifestyle will change, but also provides a clue
of how planners should prepare the future. In this perspective, planners should pay
close attention to any possible changes in demographic profile. By closely
researching the cause and effect of the changes, they are able to be more responsible
to the future and design an environment that better meets the needs of the
population. According to many researches about population projection, we will
experience a significant shift in population pyramid and this can be traced to the
Baby Boomer generation’s aging.
This report starts with connecting the population change to the recent development
theories in urban planning and design field. To make our living environment better,
and to make the urban theories, such as Infill Development, or New Urbanism, more
sustainable, I think the development patterns should be more flexible to reflect our
future demographic changes. By doing so, we will be able to maximize the advantages
of those theories and make our built environment more sustainable stage. === text |
