1. Integrating the wardrobe into the wall maximizes space usage in the elderly’s room, while dark-colored fabrics create a calm and restful atmosphere for better sleep. The room is ideally oriented towards a garden, with a hemp floor that is both comfortable and safe. A low stool with a cushion is placed nearby, making it easier for the elderly to sit down and stand up comfortably.
2. When selecting materials, it's best to avoid sharp corners and prioritize eco-friendly options. While all decoration should be environmentally friendly, extra care must be taken when designing spaces for the elderly and children, as their health and safety are more sensitive.
3. The height of the furniture should be within easy reach. Elderly individuals often need storage solutions, so a display wall (or cabinet) can be designed to showcase meaningful items. If not needed for display, good storage is still essential. As the saying goes, “Through the design of the cabinet, the habits of the elderly can change.†This means that well-designed cabinets encourage the elderly to store their belongings neatly, keeping the room clean and reducing dust and bacteria, which is crucial for their health.
4. In the bathroom, it's best to install a toilet in the washroom, ensuring non-slip flooring. The shower area should have a seat and handrails for safety. Installing a phone nearby is also beneficial. For slip prevention, non-slip textures, grooves around the shower area, and a non-slip mat are recommended to reduce the risk of falls.
5. Furniture corners should be rounded, with simple and elegant lines. The design should emphasize stability and strength, as the elderly may have back or joint issues. A hard fabric sofa is more suitable for their comfort, and if using solid wood furniture, adding a cushion can enhance support and relaxation.
6. The location of the elderly’s room is important. In a villa, it's usually on the ground floor to avoid stairs. In a regular house, it's often near the kitchen or balcony for convenience. Designers recommend placing the elderly’s room separately to avoid disturbing others, but it shouldn’t be too isolated. Encouraging interaction helps maintain their mental well-being. Additionally, some elderly people feel cold, especially in Guangdong during winter, so heating systems can be considered for the room.
7. Many people believe dim lighting is ideal for the elderly, thinking it creates a peaceful mood. However, this isn't accurate. The elderly’s room should have a bright main light source, with additional ambient lighting. Avoid installing spotlights on bookshelves, desks, or recliners, as they can be too harsh and uncomfortable for reading.
8. Regarding color choices, professional color analysis should be done based on the owner’s preferences. Whether to use wallpaper or paint depends on the overall design style and personal taste.

Brass fasteners are used for their physical and aesthetic properties. Brass is utilized due to its high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistant properties, it is suitable for use in hot and cold environments, and resistant to water corrosion, making it a staple of industries such as heating and plumbing. Brass fasteners are largely non-magnetic (like any fastener, slight magnetic properties can develop during the manufacturing process) and resistant to tarnishing.
Brass fasteners are suited for some marine environments, including brackish water and slow current sea water; brass in this environment develops a protective green coating. Brass fasteners are also commonly used with wood applications, as the golden coloring blends well with the tan wood. Brass is a softer metal and must be used with care, always drilling pilot holes and using driver bits that fit the head of the screw precisely to prevent stripping. Brass Bolts also require a pilot hole be driven before installtion.
