ABSTRACT

In recent years, the global is striving for an age-friendly environment.

By 2020, the paradigm demographic shift from the migrants in the Hong Kong colony will pass the age of 65. And this design dissertation attempts to redevelop and redesign a podium garden in Hong Kong’s Public Housing Estate for the ageing population. The aim of this design dissertation is to answer and explore “To What Extent Can the Public Space of Podium Gardens Improve the Social and Physical Quality For The Old Ageing Population in Hong Kong Social Housing Estates?�

The complexity of Hong Kong environment and development have led this investigation to be inspirational. The resources on the urban design for the older generation in Hong Kong is limited, therefore this investigation will be served as an insight for future planning to create an age-friendly community. The data collected in elderly centre has carried out to conclude the needs and improvements for the podium garden within housing estates. In general, the data collected has achieved to provide a new design vision to housing estates to improve the quality of life for the ageing population, as well as to encourage an age-friendly community and a sustainable environment.

CHAPTER 1

Introduction There are more than 580 million people aged over 60 or older in the world.

According to the Census and the Statistic Department, the ageing trend in Hong Kong will increase from 1.1 million in 2003 to 1.8 million in 2018 (See Figure 1) (Census and Statistics Department, 2018). In 2030, Hong Kong has forecast of a paradigm demographic shift for the aged community. As part of the support of housing and care provision for the ageing population, this study examines to investigate and build better public spaces in residential estates for the elderly population in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is facing major challenges to manage its demographic changes in society in particularly the demand for elderly goods and services. The elderly dependency ratio was 198 in 2014 and this ratio is projected to reach 567 by 2064 (Mok, 2018). The elderly population has been concentrated in the suburbs of Hong Kong and are facing urban deterioration in public open spaces where the social and physical quality of spaces for the elderly are not effectively incorporated in residential estates. With the complexity of the changes with urbanisation and the demographic trends of ageing, involving the elderly population in regeneration developments have been a major concern raised in 2017 Hong Kong agenda (LegCo, 2016b).

The rapid migration from Mainland China to Hong Kong in 1950 have led Hong Kong to face challenges on the overcrowding and demographic issue on high elderly dependency ratio. As the rapid urbanisation has transformed the urban landscape of Hong Kong into a densely built skyline, public spaces are at all levels. In this reason, the quality and quantity of public spaces are far from satisfactory. In light of the ageing population with the declination of lands in Hong Kong, podium gardens are allocated in an intermediate floor within the public rental housing estates to maximise the use of space while fulfilling the needs for residences (See Figure 2). The increase of living density prompts the threat of loss of open spaces in Hong Kong. The rapid urbanisation has led to a shortage of basic services in public housing estates and deficient urban design for the ageing population. As the ageing populating increase, the prevalence of diseases such as disabilities and frailty also increases. According to the 2016 Census, there are 67.2% of the ageing population are residing in public rental housing (ByCensus, 2016). Hence, an age-friendly environment is acquired in Hong Kong’s development to promote healthy lifestyles and specific design for elderly. Although, with the global trend of population ageing, the issues on the city planning for the elderly people have received increased attention, research and literature on ageing friendly design developments are still limited on this chosen topic.

1.1 Aim & Objectives

The aim of this research is to investigate the elderly satisfaction on the typology of public space in podium garden in high-density living in Hong Kong. Due to the inefficient use of public spaces within public housing in Hong Kong, the investigation will acknowledge the needs of the older people and discuss its relation with the use of space and the social well-being of the elderly on podium gardens. The study will assess the potential for the elderly engaging in communities and propose design alternatives to serve as an insight for future policy-making to create an age-friendly environment with accessible health and quality social care for the ageing population.

“The older people remain the most excluded of those living in urban communities.” - (Buffel, 2012) “We need to make strategic decisions and prepare for a fast ageing population and, more importantly, to build agefriendly communities…” said Matthew Cheung Kin-chung, the government’s Secretary for Labour and Welfare.” (Wang, 2015)

This study will explore the central research question: To what extent can the urban public space of podium gardens improve the social and physical quality for the old ageing population in Hong Kong Social Housing Estates?” along with other four objectives raised from the central research question: • What are the needs of the seniors?

• How does the public space in social housing in Hong Kong

affect the quality of life on the ageing population and in its residential neighbourhood developments?

• How can the design of public spaces facilitate the older

generation to be physically and mentally healthy?

• Develop design recommendations for promoting an ageing-

friendly public space in residential developments

Figure 3: The Open Spaces in Hong Kong (Photo taken from (Tong, 2017)).

Hong Kong is located in the Southern Coast of China, with a population of 7 million in an area of 1100km2 (Worldometers, 2018). Hong Kong has an average population density of approximately 6,700 persons per sqkm (Trading Economics, 2016). Hong Kong's population density far exceeds other Western mega-cities such as London respectively. The shortage of land supply makes Hong Kong to develop high-rise living predominant with unique urban environment such as a podium garden endowed with amenities and public landscape (Deng et al., 2016).

The excessive developments reduce the quality and the quantity of open spaces.

Currently, Hong Kong has conflicts on the low standard of plantable sites and the ineffective statutory shields to protect the urban greenery (Referred to Figure 3). In 2008, Hong Kong has recorded to have 1412 small green local sites including small parks and gardens. From 2003 to 2008, open space areas have increased by only 11% (Lo & Jim, 2010).

1.3 Historical Context

1.3a Land Use

Suburbs

During the British Empire colonisation on Hong Kong, Hong Kong has divided into 4 main districts (See Figure 4). The districts are the representative of the social class divide. The district of New Territories is the suburb of Hong Kong and is the closest location to the border of Mainland China (See Figure 5). The new migration policy in 1950 had increased a large influx of refugees from Mainland China to the New Territories. With the shortage of developable lands in Hong Kong, the Housing Authority in Hong Kong began to construct affordable housing in the New Territories to accommodate the overpopulation of Chinese migrants and lowerincome families as temporary shelters. Currently, the New Territories district serves to be the main district for the Government to undergo public housing development projects for the older generation and migrants from China with podium squares to meet the needs for the residences. Nevertheless, buildings are densely constructed with a podium garden to make efficient use of space, however these buildings in New Territories are inadequate and often given less attention by the Housing Authorities because of its distance decay to the urban core areas of Hong Kong.

1.3 Historical Context

1.3b Types of Social Housing

The Public Rental Housing (PRH) accommodates more than 38% of the ageing population in Hong Kong (Wilk, 2017). Since the 1953 Shek Kip Mei squatter village fire, the Hong Kong Housing Authority has designed and improved the public housing complexes (Yeung, 2007). The Housing Authority has also provided guidance to improve the quality public housing for the poor and seniors, also with public spaces to satisfy the daily needs of users.

In 1990, the building typologies of the public housing have been changed a lot in order to improve the living conditions for the elderly such as the building circulation and internal layout of the housing units (Yeung, 2007). The outbreak of SARS in 2003 also raised public awareness on health issues due to the overcrowded lining patterns in Hong Kong. The environmental sustainability has then became a priority in design PRH estates and the surrounding public open spaces (Deng et al., 2016).

In 2012, the Housing Society (HKHS) with the provision of the Housing Authority have launched the ‘ageing in place’ with podium garden design in PRH estates to satisfy the life cycle requirements of residents (HKHS, 2018). The PRH estates provide an additional attention to barrier-free facilities and other amenities for the elderly. The podium gardens Page 13

were implemented to separate between buildings for building circulation and are designed for communal activities and get sufficient natural ventilation for residences (Yeung, 2007). The podium gardens in housing estates are usually considered as a secondary ground space and are not well utilised and maintained by the community.

Consequently, the urbanisation shows no signs of declination and are reducing the quality of space and the social well-being on elderly. Although, the Housing Authority has been experimenting with green urban designs for public use for the elderly population, the government’s guidance on green designs are still inadequate (Housing Department, 2010).

There have been criticism on the housing reform developments and services provided for the ageing population. The suburbs area of Hong Kong such as the New Territories district are found to have poorer allocation of open spaces and environment conditions overall. Brown et al. (2003) suggested that the poor physical condition of spaces will reduce the places’ attachment of the residents and will reduce the safety and security of the area. The quality of the podium garden exhibits the user satisfaction and the urban characteristics of Hong Kong. Therefore, this issue has raised concerns to enhance a social sustainable environment specifically towards the large proportion of the ageing population residing in PRH estates in Hong Kong.

1.4 Policy Context

The design proposal complies with the planning policies and guidance provided by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) formed in 2000 by the provision of Hong Kong Government aligned with the WHO program to provide general recreation and social facilities for public use.

In 2008, Hong Kong Government has initiated a “Recreation, Open Space and Greening” program as a guideline for planning in open spaces which sets out the need to provide planting and recreation facilities for residents with the emphasise to maximise the use of spaces (Shi et al., 2014).

• 1.4.1b: provide more

DISCUSSION However, the intensive use of space in Hong Kong has led to the reduction of green spaces and to be ineffective. Chan et al. (2016) commented the leisure activities and physical characteristics for the elderly are not considered in the planning process because the involvement of designing public spaces are usually planned in the latest stage of the process. The public spaces in the old districts are facing urban deterioration without proper planning and appropriate design considerations for the ageing population to interact in public spaces overall (Chan et al., 2016). Therefore, the Government must provide public reformation on the design of open spaces in estates to address the needs for the elderly and provide new social opportunities for an agefriendly environment.

CHAPTER 2 Literature Review After a background overview of the PRH, this section provides a literature review of public green space in housing estates in Hong Kong. There will be relevant issues and design principles for redesigning space for the ageing population compromising on the aspects of the public space for the elderly.

2.1 Ageing in the Urban Environment

The age-friendly concept has raised awareness of the impact of population ageing on the planning of urban environments. Hong Kong hosts a growing number of the first generation migrants that face challenges on the problem of poverty and poor housing issues. In this reason, the ageing population are facing urban challenges and variety of pressures with physiological and cognitive vulnerabilities. As the rapid changes on the patterns of spatial use, the old people needs support and opportunities through the design.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has proposed the policy objective for ‘agefriendly’ development in urban environments. The sub-goals in the Action Plan on Ageing and Health is to provide safe and accessible spaces for elderly. The WHO objectives reflect supportive urban communities for old people and has defined spaces to ‘optimise opportunities for health, participation and security to enhance quality of life as people age (WHO, 2007).’

2.2 Jan Gehl’s Life Between Buildings: Using Public Space (2011)

In “Life Between Buildings”, Gehl (2011: pp.14) examines the aspects of sustainability, shared space, mixed-uses, sense of security, usability are what make public spaces meaningful and attractive. Gehl (2002) in “Public Space, Public Life” proposed, public spaces intertwine functional recreational and social activities for people to walk, sit, enjoy and be together with other people. Gehl (2011: pp.14) divided three categories on the physical environment in public spaces; necessary, option and social activities. In addition, public spaces provides physical elements to enhance pedestrian flows and stationary and moving activities. Overall, Gehl uses systematic and empirical observation of patterns of space use with movement mapping, analysing the physical condition of human sense (meet, see and hear) and reinforcing the sense of place of the environment (Gehl, 2011).

“The elderly need a supportive environment including transportation and public spaces.� - (DPT, 2016)

2.3 The Needs for the Elderly

The social well-being and environmental preferences of the public open spaces are essential to the needs of the elderly and it is linked to the quality of lifestyle. Urban public spaces are seen as nodes of communication for the elderly and a stress relieve facility. There are increasing concerns of the urban population’s health problems which have put emphasising to increase the needs of the older people in considerations for the development of public spaces (Zhu et al., 2017). A research led by Chan et al. (2016) have revealed that the elderly population prefer more open spaces which provides them opportunities for social interactions, to be physically active and to avoid loneliness.

As ageing increases, the psychological pressures and disability of health constraints will also increase (Referred to Figure 6,7,8). The physical environment of public spaces are significant to the elderly population, particularly to people who are reliant for local support and assistances.

The ageing population are sensitive to certain changes in the physical environment, therefore they need the significant to maintain a sense of community and identity in public spaces (Rowles, 1983). The safety and security of public spaces also contribute to the perception of the elderly to access to spaces. High crime rates creates psychological barriers to the older people and may deter them to go out and feel insecure. There are approximately 11% of the ageing population are associated with dementia or cognitive impairments problems (LegCo, 2016a).

Despite the psychological and physical constraints on the ageing population, the public spaces should provide opportunities for older people with social and cultural resources for the first and later generation migrants in Hong Kong.

2.4 Urban Features to Enhance an Age-Friendly Environment

There are three major indicators on the aspect of public space to enhance the needs and the elderly’s social wellbeing and lifestyle. These indicators include the physical environment, the accessibility and movement and the social inclusion and participation (Chan et al., 2016).

THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT The physical environment is the delivery of a comfortable environment for the ageing population to meet, feel and build positive relationship. The physical conditions in the environment includes the sense of safety and security and the aesthetic of the landscape.

The sense of safety and security is the major physical condition to the satisfaction of its users, particularly on elderly because they often feel loneliness which relates to health and wellbeing issues (RIBA, 2017). The comfortable environment with landscape and appropriate spatial setting of the physical environment will allow elderly to connect and interact (Kwok & Ng, 2008). Huang (2018) has proposed that the safety and the high criminal rates in public spaces such as attacking and human trafficking will make elderly reduce time to use and access spaces. In Western cities, podium designs were usually abandoned because of the antisocial behaviours such as drug users and thieves hidden in podium gardens which create an unsafe living environment. Lucy & Philips (2006) have noted if an open space increase community cohesion, it would reduce crime rates by providing street watching and public monitoring. This is followed by Jacob’s research (1961) that providing a sense of security will increase community cohesion

and strengthen the belonging to a neighbourhood in the community.

Also, the elderly often have distrust of other people, therefore the sense of safety and security in the physical setting with adequate natural lighting are substantial to their social interaction (Kwok & Ng, 2008). The visual landscape and the diminishment of noise contribute the how the elderly use the public spaces and the ability to interact with others.

Overall, the physical landscape will compromise a safe and comfort environment by ensuring a secure and aesthetic environment for the elderly to achieve a successful age-friendly community.

The spatial enclosure of the environment will be taken into consideration to the accessibility to elderly. Olonetzky (2007) has raised that the enclosure will fix the emotional insecurities of people. Enclosure is vital to the user’s experience and it varies to the enclosure preferences and it contributes significantly to the feelings of safety and security. The insecurity of accessing places may supplement psychological withdrawal on the ageing population (Rowles, 1989). The physiological and psychological changes have result the restriction of the elderly’s physical mobility and the lack of motivation to go out.

“‘Open space’ is one of the essential land uses that intends to provide functions as “conservation, recreation, contact with nature, social or mental health within an urban environment.” - (Lynch, 1960: pp.396) THE ACCESSIBILITY AND MOVEMENT Accessibility is used as a spatial measure to indicate the mobility and how a space can be reached conveniently. The accessibility to space is an essential element involving psychological and physical effect on elderly to access open spaces and determine particular locations in the podium garden. As health constrains upon agility increases, environment barriers and the walkability become more significant to the elderly in public spaces (Rowles, 1978). The facilities that influence the agility and mobility of the ageing population includes the legibility, walkability and the connectivity to locations. The accessibility will be improved if the permeability of a space is increased and this is because accessibility will achieve the sociability and enhance the interactions between neighbours, specifically to elderly with poor walkability.

Therefore, in planning for the elderly, the consideration of the geographical and the accessibility experience have focused to put emphasis with variety of services creating a physically barrier-free environment. The design of the footpath and proper accessibility facilities such as applying more handrails, less steep slopes and higher connectivity will create an agefriendly environment. The accessibility settings of the environment such as the seating arrangement and the urban furniture, public toilets all create a pleasant and comfortable environment for old people to access to public spaces to interact. Moreover, the elements of

accessibility within a podium garden will also have to provide a clear entrance and a visible condition to the public with a barrier-free approach design to benefit the older generation, specifically to elderly with dementia problems. Kwok & Ng (2008) denoted that the accessibility and movement are influential on the elderly’s feelings and their comfort to move freely without barriers.

The infrastructure of legibility and signs are also important into the design on accessibility for a successful age-friendly environment. Consequently, if an open space is developed with good spatial structure elements, it is more likely to affect the elderly’s preferences to the use of space and improve the social cohesion within the community. The design of the redevelopment is needed to refocus on the strategies to facilitate the flexibility and mobility dilemma of the ageing population. Kaplan (1898) have further discussed the indicators of community coherence and legibility relating to the spatial structure of space. The design on the legibility (direction and signs relating to the ageing community) and the usability of space of a podium garden will increase the sense of openness and the safety of the area under public monitoring system.

“Sense of community as an emotional perception and the belief of belonging to a place.” - (Lui & Kim, 2017) THE SOCIAL INCLUSION AND PARTICIPATION The sense of community is one of the main elements to enhance the social quality & participation of elderly in the living environments. The sense of community can enrich the cultural and local identity to the place by increasing opportunities for an active lifestyle. As Kwok & Ng (2008) proposed, the social participation in public places such as communal activities and facilities (community centres, local shops etc…) will improve the physical and mental health of the elderly and it will encourage the elderly population to attach to a place which creates a sense of community. In fact, the diversity of group activities and main cultural events will be taken place in the open spaces in residential areas including Tai-Chi and dancing practices to facilitate social interactions of elderly and its social community. The cultural events will integrate heritage and cultural components of the site which increase the local identity and sense of place for the elderly people.

The social participation will help the ageing population to gain knowledge and develop stronger sense of connection to community.

As Gehl (2011: pp.23) mentioned “people and human activities attract other people.”

Additionally, the residents in public housing estates are common to gather in the podium squares because it is usually where people are and the community events which are held regularly. The community services and social support also increase the sense of community to reduce loneliness of the elderly and the elderly can get help anytime from the community service centre (Huang, 2018). Public spaces should also provide a variety of land-uses and activities to attract and integrate different places and elements for the ageing population, specifically to elderly who are exposed to high level of mental stress by the compact urban environment in Hong Kong (Payne, 2009).

THE NEEDS OF THE ELDERLY • Social well-being is essential

• Optimise opportunities for

health • Increase social

participation for elderly • Spaces must be security

and safe for elderly to access

to elderly to avoid loneliness • Need to be physically active

as health constraints increases • Provide social services and

education as some elderly may associate with psychological pressure and cognitive problems • Retain a sense of community

and identity because elderly are sensitive to changes and they might have poor adaptability

CHAPTER 3 Methodology This empirical research will be assessed and evaluated on the aspect on survey questionnaires, a bipolar study and on-site observations using behavioural mapping and photographing to assess the design and the quality of space. The design principles and methodology will be taken account from Jan Gehl’s “Public Space, Public Life” in 1998 and “Life Between Buildings” in 2011 to analyse the usage of urban public space and activities in order to attempt a redesign project to improve Hong Kong’s podium gardens.

3.1 Data Collection

reliable source. The behavioural mapping will be taken with approximately 5-10 minutes.

The study explores two parts; the first part accesses the physical aspect such as the design quality and the typological of space with an on-site observation assessment. The bipolar study will incorporate a general information of the environmental quality assessment with a 5 point likert-scale as a observation into data that can be quantifiable through rating +2 being the best quality and vice versa for -2 on on the physical condition of the podium (See Appendix 1.1 for Environmental Quality Assessment). The function of space will be collected using Jan Gehl’s on-site observation methodology with behaviour mapping including tracing, tracking and pedestrian counting (Gehl, 2011). The data collection for on-site observation will all be collected in different daytime in 2 separate days during the week for a more

The second part of the study investigates the needs of the elderly by adopting a participatory action research.

The survey questionnaires will be treated as a discrete data with open and close questions to be taken in an elderly centre to allow me to understand the social perspective of the elderly (The sample of the questionnaire will be referred in Appendix 1.2). The survey questionnaire will regard to have at least 20 respondents for the results to be statistically significant.

Page 22

3.2 Sampling Procedure

The primary data for the bipolar study and on-site observations are carried using systematic point sampling. In-person interviews (survey questionnaires) are conducted in selected residential areas and elderly centres. In each neighbourhood, diverse groups of older people will be involved in the participatory research to allow the data to be consistent and comprehensive.

Figure 10: Gehl’s Behavioural Mapping Methodology (Gehl, 2011)

3.3 Ethical Considerations

Ethical considerations have been considered in the study. The study involves in the social perception of Hong Kong local residences of podium gardens in public housing estate. The survey questionnaires taken will not ensure that all participates are interested in the topic. In order to obtain a non-bias research, the questionnaire will provide a written invitation to the participants beforehand informed with relevant information about the research. The participants will also be agreed to sign a consent form as a respect for autonomy and respect for persons. The respect for persons is safeguarded and confidential (The informed consent will be referred in Appendix 2).

CHAPTER 4 Proposed Site The location of the study has chosen Lai-Yiu Estate in Kwai Chung to analyse the condition of podium gardens for public use. Kwai Chung is significant because it is one of the densest area in Hong Kong with high demand of residential developments. Kwai Chung is also the first generation of New Towns which is the central location between the Mainland China and Hong Kong (Lau, 2014).

Entertainment & Leisure Purposes

DESCRIPTION The area of Lai-Yiu Estate complies a variety of services.

However, most of the land-uses around the site are dominated by public rental housing and education uses.

The industrial is located closely to housing and residential sites.

Predominately may affect users and increase traffic congestion in peak times which results high pressure on residences.

The site complies two medical services in nearby. The services are private services, consequently, not all residences can afford to be served.

There is a lack of convenient and retail shops in the area for the residential.

ASSETS:

There are no green parks and spaces available in the site for people to access. The hill located next to the site is not for leisure purposes. However, it contributes to the overall landscape.

• Concert hall and cinema

• 4 local schools funded by the Government

• 2 small parks/ open space

• 2 medical services

ACCESSBILITY & CONNECTIVITY

DESCRIPTION Lai-Yiu Street

According to the Literature Review in Chapter 2, Accessibility is defined by how a space can be reached conveniently to achieve a barrier-free environment (Rowles, 1978). Good spatial structure elements are also a factor of accessibility relating to legibility and permeability. Lai-Yiu Estate connects to two bus stops and it does not support with variety of public transports to access to other places conveniently. The estate disconnects from the natural assets and to the city centre. There are no clear circulation structure with narrow streets (Circled in red in Figure 18b) for the ageing population and this creates a barrier for them to access space.

The site is also traffic dominated connecting with secondary roads which are constantly congested. This creates nuisance complaints from noise and transport density from nearby school and transport roads particularly in peak-times.

The site area is located at the hill and is isolated from the city centre and accessibility to nearby areas. It lacks buer to industrial sites and roads, creating a low public t r a n s p o r t a c c e s s i b i l i t y ( P TA L L e v e l s ) f o r t h e neighbourhood. Overall, there are a segregation of areas in Lai-Yiu Estate which lacks legibility and permeability in the choice for people to travel around that make residences to rely and depend to the use of podium.

CHAPTER 5 Data Collection The needs of the ageing population and the site location have been identified. The collected results on the physical environment and social responses are summarised in this section (All collected results will be referred in Appendix 3) and will be developed as Design Vision in Chapter 6.

• There are some local shops in the podium, however the elderly seldom shop in the area due to the lack of

choices and goods that the podium provides. Therefore, variety of goods is needed to increase optional activities in the podium.

• Besides that, the podium serves low optional activities because of poor design of benches. This also connects

to the main concerns by the old people in further analysis in Figure 33: Main Concerns in the Podium.

5.2 Environmental Quality Assessment for the Elderly The EQAI concludes the overall design quality and typology of space of the podium from on-site observation using Gehl’s method (Referred to Figure 28).

Figure 25: The Enclosure Ration of the Site

ANALYSIS • Good exposure to natural lighting and microclimate with appropriate enclosure ration

(See Figure 25) which provides good ventilation and the air of the environment.

However, the podium needs brighter street lights at night for better provision for the elderly with low vision.

• Lack of green spaces and poor maintenance on overall landscape and greenery. The

greenery provided is not aesthetically pleasing which creates a dull and boring atmosphere (Referred to Figure 26, 27).

• The podium does not provide good quality of facilities for the elderly. Although there

5.3 Social Responses • Most of the elderly come in the morning because it is less quite and it has fewer people

which reduces their rate of incidents (Refer to Figure 30), and there are more than half of the old population come to the podium at least 3 or more times a week to social and be physically active (See Figure 32).

• There are only 15% of elderly come to the podium at night because they need extra provision

from family members who’s at work. This result also connects to the overall pedestrian count in Figure 19.

• Some elderly suggested the dim street lights reduce them to go out at night to avoid

incidents and danger, this also connects to the reason of visual impairment on the old people.

• According to the responses from the elderly, the most engaged activity in the podium are

exercising and to meet friends (See Figure 29, 31). This responses to the movement and behaviour mapping shown in Figure 21: Collection of behaviour mapping. There’s also a small proportion of people suggest other activities to do in the podium such as shopping to buy daily needs as an entertainment.

SWOT Analysis

This section is intended to propose a new redevelopment strategy for the Lai-Yiu Public Estate. The improvement of the site includes the land-use, the character and the typology of space to meet the needs for the elderly. The investigation explores and concludes the strengths and weaknesses of the open space with SWOT analysis and a design vision for future prospects.

STRENGTHS Primary: 1. Major physical and historical asset of social housing in Kwai Chung area.

2. The geographic area of the podium also acts a landmark of the estate which creates a sense of direction, making it easy for elderly to navigate.

3. Vibrant oasis of entertainment with social and physical facilities.

4. Varieties and good transport links with bus stops surrounding the estate and parking space for drives.

OPPORTUNITIES Primary: 1. Incorporating more day time and social activities such as Tai-Chi and Martial Art practices to complement the interesting culture for elderly - supporting and reinforce cultural hub.

2. Maximising the potential of the podium by diversifying the economy with more local shops for elderly to easy access for food and daily needs.

3. Major opportunity to connect the site and the city centre with integrated transports (minibuses and buses station) - provide outward connectivity to the city centre and all areas of Kwai Chung.

THREATS

Secondary: 4. Incorporate planting area and green space to generate a pleasant environment for interaction - reinforce the theme of unity in the outdoor environment (Gehl, 2011).

Planting can also act as an acoustic barriers to reduce the background noise from traffic.

Page 33

WEAKNESSES Primary: 1. Limited social interaction and activities in podium that keep people to stay long period of time. Shops are often closed or abandoned, decreasing the number of footfall/ usage - lack of utilisation.

2. Inadequate seating placed at the edges of the podium - seating arrangements are not comfortable in terms of the design.

3. Lack of gardening and green spaces, creating a hard space and thus creates a sense of isolation.

4. No proper street lights in the area and are usually dim at night - causes safety hazard and anti-social behaviours to occur within the area.

Secondary: 5. The seating preference does not provide a good view of the surrounding activities and view of others (Gehl, 2011).

6. Poor maintenance of street furnitures (benches, walls, footways, pavements) - generates an unpleasant environment and it affects the accessibility of the elderly.

7. No public toilets available in the area - causes inconvenience for elderly to access space freely.

THREATS Primary 1. Despite acknowledging that there will be more opportunities to introduce social activities and events, over clustering the open space may cause the risk of losing its large space to roam and affecting the mobility of the old people.

Secondary: 2. The existing street furnitures including benches, tables and landscape are worsen from the lack of public maintenance by the community.

“If we have to take design into next level, design must shape and help the community.� - Junjie Huang, 2018

CHAPTER 6 Design Vision and Principles The design processes has subjected to remediate the podium garden in Lai-Yiu Estate with extensive obligations and supplementary guidelines which aims for a new identity and brings the community together. The on-site observations and interviews have been analysed from the SWOT analysis and will be contributing to the design by focusing onto the 3 main themes: The Accessibility & Movement, The Social Inclusion & Participation and The Physical Environment developed from the literature review.

The design is designated to provide a lively environment and comfort by inserting recreation facilities and aesthetic landscapes into the site for the ageing population. As the site is part of the historical asset of the Kwai Chung district, the older generation will revive their memories throughout the site as a meeting point which brings peace and happiness, creating a vibrant estate.

To encourage a quality lifestyle and sustainable environment for the ageing population, here are the 7 actions require to the philosophy of the design: 1. Proximity: Access to destinations and diversity of land-use mix for multiple functions.

2. Connectivity: Ease of access and enhance pedestrian barrier-free environment.

3. Recreation Facilities: Presence of outdoor and indoor activity facilities to enhance knowledge and opportunities.

4. Pedestrian & Amenities: Features that make it comfortable for old people.

5. Safety: Features that influence the perception of safety.

6. Form: Landscape continuity and enclosure (building structure).

7. Parks & Public Spaces: Access to hard and soft scape and quality urban public spaces.

6.1 Applying Design Strategies

The design strategies are proposed in the following structure chart to reinvigorate the site with 3 elements: Circulation, Land Use and Open Space along with 7 urban design dimensions and objectives to sustain the philosophy of the design and creating an age-friendly environment extracted from the 3 main themes: The Accessibility & Movement, The Social Inclusion & Participation and The Physical Environment.

CHAPTER 7 Design Concept Evolution

The design of the podium has adopted a bubble diagram as a principle design to create an environmentally friendly landscape design by determining the best location and land-uses for the area.

The stages of the design has been developed into a final design.

Stage 1

FLEXIBLE SPACES:

The site provides flexible spaces with shared streets for the ageing population.

The aspect of accessibility is taken into the account of the elderly geographical experience due to their limitation of action (See Figure 39). Hence, the outcome of interaction and movement is emphasised in the design through the behaviour maps collected for the study (See Figure 21 located in Chapter 5).

The site ensures all routes are even spread out through the bubble concept diagram (Referred to Figure 38) to reduce crowdedness to allow aged people to walk freely.

Walkability is a predominant factor that associates with health and social support for the old people. As one of the respondents suggested “Their legs will get stiff if they stand or walk too long.� Therefore, the services in the site are in proximity while maintaining a pleasant environment for old people to walk. The increase of mix-land uses to nearby amenities also reduce travel distances for the older people to travel around.

The urban design of mix-use developments and its spatial framework allow old people to facilitate with sufficient locational flexibility to the choice of destination. The design overall aims to foster a new intergenerational community facility that the podium will not only serve the ageing population, but also the public pedestrian.

Stage 2-3 In the second and third stage, the main nodes and landmarks for the podium have been applied according to the sizes which identified by the open spaces and land uses with curvilinear and rectilinear layout. The design also appraises a central pedestrianised public realm with wider walking paths for greater accessibility and physical facilities for the old people. The shapes and patterns have determined the best size and location for wanted elements and activities in the podium, such as spacious area for recreation and active activities (See Figure 38,39).

STAGE 2 Main Nodes and Landmarks

Scale 1:500

LAYOUT OF THE SITE:

The layout of the site is legible to understand for purposes of way-finding and is well integrated with urban context in order for the ageing population to feel safe and secure. The proposed function of nodes such as resting areas, community gardens, playscape add the interest to the community value and to the existing spaces into the podium.

The older people are attempting to satisfy needs and physical actions containing everyday activities, movement and to travel (Rowles, 1978: pp. 157). The proposed programs such as retail, social services facilities, active zones including; personal mobility device facilities, sports and rehabilitation facilities and education spaces for the elderly which overall add towards the diversity to the estate (Referred to Figure 40).

Retail and social services

Podium square/ Events

The legibility of the site will connect and radiate dierent directions to make accessible for dementia people or elderly with severe cognitive problems. The notion of different aspects and landmarks around the podium will attract dierent users to walk through and will be age-friendly to navigate easily regardless in different directions that they are heading. Also, the site will contain a new entrance located in the South end to connect to variety of services including social facilities and transportation to the nearest city centre in order to create a barrier-free environment (See purple circle in Figure 40).

Active Zones: Recreation facilities

Spacious area will adopt a curvilinear layout to maximise spaces for movements and activities.

Education: Gardening

Figure 40: Curvilinear layout with rounded lines to the items shown in Figure 38.

Page 37

ACTIVATING PLACES:

The podium has a socio-commercial area which acts as a meeting place as well as a space between commercial and residential for elderly to access to shopping and convenient goods effectively (Lui & Kim, 2017). There is a square located in the South West of the site that will host shows and events regularly as an entertainment for the ageing population and there will be displayed art pieces and urban furnitures to enhance the sense of community and the social value of the area to increase the overall function of space (See Figure 41).

STAGE 3 Scale 1:500

The podium will provide a plantable site as a greenery setting and a space component in order to express the identity and the meaning of space with different functions. Also, the aesthetic quality of the greenery and physical landscape will enhance the visual aspect which enhances opportunities and the quality of the experiences for the elderly.

As more physically active facilities, there will be better health outcomes and positive psychological impacts such as less neighbourhood deprivation. Therefore, the podium holds indoor and outdoor activities considering the needs for the elderly population dedicated with physical elements to enhance the stationary and moving activities of users while increasing people in the area.

The recreation and leisure facilities may result crowdedness in the area, therefore, the amount of these social facilities will be amended to provide a ratio of 40:60 between social, recreation facilities and open spaces for a comfort environment.

Figure 41: A quick sketch incorporating rectilinear and curvilinear layout using curve and straight lines to the items shown in Figure 38.

Art & Social

Areas for social and optional activities will adopt a rectilinear layout because the shape of straight lines maintain a sense of Chinese identity to the local area.

Page 38

LANDSCAPING AESTHETICS: The site applies a greenery setting throughout the podium. The site incorporates a plantable site for gardening purposes to increase sustainability (Referred to the purple circle in Figure 41). The use of green spaces are designed for the ageing population to contact with nature and increase sensory delight. This can increase the old people’s knowledge, also enhancing the quality of life. The site also provides rooftop gardens to maximise green space in the podium.

Viewpoint Heading towards Residential Area

Viewpoint Facing towards the City Centre of Kwai Chung

ENCLOSURE SETTING: East side of the podium is towards the Lai King Hill and it is more privatised

West side of the podium heads towards the City Centre, hence lower level of exposure

Figure 42: The Level of Exposure in Lai-Yiu Estate

Page 39

The various activities acquire different enclosure settings such as an open space for relaxation and an enclosed space for private conversation (Shi et al., 2014). The function of the podium design has taken the consideration to be moderately enclosed for social activities such as gardening in the East side for residences to create an age-friendly environment while maintaining a safe and vibrant public open spaces (Referred to Figure 42).

The noise from transport has also taken into consideration, therefore the podium will ensure a semi-private enclosed open space in the East side of the podium to balance between the level of exposure and privacy for residences and the ageing population (Connecting to Figure 43, 44 in the following page).

Stage 4

The forth stage of the design have implemented the concept of permeability to the possible buildings in the podium to overcome the division of space and void areas in the site. The design considers optimal block sizes (See Figure 44) to connect main frontages and pedestrian zone in the site.

This design allows to improve the hidden turning corners and safety issues throughout the site.

Opening up the residential block for more flexible spacious area and better ventilation.

The site has incorporated active frontages in the West area and has undertaken a semi-enclosed concept in the East to maximise the use of space while creating privacy for residents. Overall, Stage 4 complies the desired design element to sustain an age-friendly environment.

CREATE PERMEABLILTY: The semi-private open atrium in the West area connects the estates and will share the exterior of the square which contains natural lighting and ventilation for leisure (See orange dotted structure in Figure 43). The East area of the podium (towards residential area) will be moderately enclosed to create an ambiguous environment for private conversations while increasing the arousal level.

The podium has incorporated a regular shape design to achieve a clear defined boundary to reduce ambiguity to ensure safety and to connect with its adjacent spaces (See the purple dotted structure in Figure 43 which also connects to Figure 44).

The porosity of the site creates new routes that connects with the pedestrianised public realm which allows more spaces and choices for people to walk, sit and be active. This design concept accommodates mobility networks and makes the site more user-friendly with a clear hierarchy of walk paths and walking or sitting zones.

8.2 Close-Ups URBAN FURNITURES According to the social responses, walkability is rated the highest by the elderly. Therefore the site enquires safety for elderly to walk around in the neighbourhood without obstruction on walkway which might add additional health constraints and pressure (Woo et al., 2010).

The new design of podium provides natural and street furnitures such as lighting and site signs which creates a comfort environment for elderly to connect to places. The urban furnitures in the site are dedicated for the ageing population which makes them comfortable to be seated in long period of time to interact in a barrier-free atmosphere.

Public Benches

Comfortable benches made with wood are provided for resting and observing the environment.

The placement of trees are designed for recreation and to serve as benches.

Permeable Floors Location Signs

Location signs are located around the site for the purposes of way-finding around the site.

Handrails

Soft/permeable floor is applied to characterise the space to allow various activities and actions.

Construction of handrails to ensure safety and provide walkability to access to places for elderly.

Street Lighting

Street lighting to ensure safety for elderly to reduce antisocial behaviours.

Page 42

Public Toilets

The presence of public toilets are served around the site to encourage a barrier-free environment for the elderly to stay longer time in public spaces for interaction.

Exits The site has limited to two main Exits and are located at the two ends of the site to make it simple for people to navigate, particularly for the dementia people.

LANDSCAPING AND STREET FEATURES INCREASING HORIZONTAL CONNECTIONS: The podium has implemented the organisation of a semi-private open atrium on the orientation of welcoming public open spaces and enlarging pathways and visual connections to increase visibility throughout the site. The redesign enhances the horizontal connections with adjacent spaces by adding active frontages which invites old people to engage in the podium and can able to visualise the entire site to ensure safety and security of the area (See Figure 46). These settings will result a positive psychological factors to the old people and create an age-friendly environment.

The spaces connect areas with a proper walking path for the old people to access. The central pedestrianised public realm is supported with wide walkways for elderly with poor walkability to access the site. The wide walking paths also encourages old people to be physically active for greater accessibility. The pedestrianised public realm allows a safe environment and promote active frontages and outdoor activities along with local retail shops and landscapes. Besides that, the active frontages are along the side with appropriate enclosure rations for an active and vibrant environment.

LIMITING EDGES: The infill void areas with greenery setting will give the a pleasant and comfort opportunity for the older people to meet and the feeling of physical and positive psychological wellbeing results. The design will compromise with an open environment by increasing the visibility and the sense of openness for safety. By limiting the edges with active frontages and greenery settings will create a positive environment by soften the dark colours of the area.

Open areas of the site can add The location of the plantable area greenery landscape along the site for Elderly are designed with with appropriate street furniture enlarged space from residential which enhances the aesthetic and blocks to visualise the site (See the landscape of the podium Figure 44 for Design Concept)

The open atrium creates visibility and limit edges through the site by adding active frontages

The design of the site designates spaces and landscapes that improves social interactions. The redesign of the podium performs different sitespecific elements to enhance different opportunities and activities. The site contributes to a sustainable environment. The redesigned podium draws different purposes: Social, Physical, Culture and Amenities which altogether improve the quality of life to contribute an age-friendly placemaking environment. The successful examples of age-friendly environment are attractive and can accommodate the needs of the elderly and with variety of activities that brings different generations and people together (See Fig.47 - 50).

CHAPTER 9 Conclusion The design process was intended to draw attention to the importance and stimulate an age-friendly environment in the local and global context. The redesigned podium to a large extent was focused on searching the needs of elderly and references to maintain a sustainable environment for the ageing population. Considering the issue of urban deterioration in Hong Kong estates, it is undoubted need to remediate open spaces to use its potential.

The innovative attempt enhances the resolute actions towards a sustainable community and maintains a strong community relationship between spaces and the environment thats ensures the space is used appropriately for the ageing population.

Currently numerous tendencies of the development are showing existing opportunities for the ageing population. This occurrence clearly illustrates ambitions of social progress, which in the future can lead to significant design processes to create an effective and functional urban environment.

The urban design dedicated for the ageing population is undeniably one of the most exploration fields which carries immeasurable benefits. The functional spaces will enable to stimulate new spatial solutions with appropriate strategies and approaches to enrich an age-friendly environment.
