Today there is an increase in life expectancy and this means that the older population is increasing. Our aim is to provide a better quality of life, promote the autonomy, dignity, and well-being of the elderly. We also focus on the psychological well-being of the elderly and provide facilities that lessen the negative effects of loneliness, social isolation, and difficulties in terms of self-care needs. The design of the building addresses part of the source of this loneliness by providing ample light and airy rooms and passageways, and shows how, through good design, it is possible to establish a community framework of mutual support. Living in this retirement community provides an opportunity for engagement and interaction and yet allows the residents to retain their independence.
Impressed with the credentials of the MSS, a brother – sister couple had donated a piece of land in the heart of Bangalore to the MSS, for development into an Old Age Home. After their demise, their shares in the property were bequeathed to the MSS. This provided the means for MSS to go ahead with its dream project.
