“…Social-ecological research has identified different environmental characteristics as "stress generators", meaning that better environments can positively impact mental health and personal performance. Shabalin believed that when designing and adjusting the living environment, the user's physical health, needs, and psychological factors should be considered [38]. Veen proved that promoting residents' physical health, social cohesion, and psychological well-being are important evaluation indicators of urban greenfield planning [39].…”

The pursuit of sustainable well-being is one of the research objectives of positive experience design. Therefore, this paper aims to provide an impact-centered, sustainable, positive experience design model. First, the literature review method was used to define the research status and concept of impact-centered, sustainable design. Second, an impact-centered, sustainable, positive experience design model was constructed, and relevant formulas for concept generation and evaluation were proposed. Third, design verification was conducted through a workshop. Finally, the technology acceptance model questionnaire was used to evaluate and discuss the design model. An impact-centered sustainable positive design model was proposed, which included the important impact dimensions of sensory experience and meaningful experience on users’ qualities of life at different levels: healthy living (pleasure index and health behavior), harmonious community (social connectivity and social contribution), and livable environment (living environment and environmental contribution). Based on positive experience-related theory, this study takes long-term impacts as the starting point for a sustainable, positive experience design, which helps designers generate design concepts from a systematic and long-term perspective.

“…In literature and documents, people are usually defined as elders when they reach the age of 65 [22]. Elders are often subdivided into the elderly (65-75 years old), the old (75-90 years old), and the very old (90 and older) [23]. Aging is "a physiological, genetically programmed process accompanied by certain age-related changes in the body" [23] (p. 62); thus it can be noted, that the needs related to the living environment of the elderly people of these groups may differ substantially; moreover, the signs of aging in each individual may appear differently.…”

“…As A. F. Newell and P. Gregor [11] (p. 3) concluded, "the needs and wants of people who are in the autumn of their lives are not necessarily the same as those of younger people". According to V. Shabalin [23] (p. 62), the process of aging is related to both the somatic changes in the body and the transformation of the psyche. The elderly people are often viewed as nervous and depressed [5] and the older age is generally associated with personality changes that are seen as negative.…”

“…The elderly people are often viewed as nervous and depressed [5] and the older age is generally associated with personality changes that are seen as negative. However, according to V. Shabalin [23], elderly people often have advantages over younger people in the creative field. Both physical health and needs (frailty, diversity, and changes in physical needs in the course of aging) and psychological aspects should be considered when designing and adapting the living environment for the elderly population.…”

“…Numerous sources underline the connection of biophilic design and positive physical and psychological health outcomes [29,32,33,37] that are crucial for sustainable aging. The positive impact on psychology should be especially underlined here [23].…”

The aging population presents numerous challenges and the design and management of living environments are not an exception. This literature review and analysis brings together topics related to the living environment of the aging population and the concept of sustainability. The article presents the review of the existing design concepts that are applied to planning the environment for the elderly, including (i) design for all, (ii) universal design, and (iii) inclusive design. Furthermore, this review highlights the aspects of sustainability and the peculiarities of the aging population that should be taken into account in the design and management of their living environment. Key points related to sustainable aging are highlighted, and the possibility of complementing the existing design concepts with the concept of biophilic design is proposed in order to strengthen their social, psychological, and ecological aspects.
