在老年公寓的建筑设计中，有很多方面是与普通公寓不同的，也是需要完善和规范的，比如:在高级老年公寓中，各个功能空间的大小必须控制。因为老年人在生活中，虽然衣食无忧，可是在心理上容易产生孤独感，过大的空间容易使得老年人产生空荡荡的孤独感;同时使用空间也不能过小，因为老年人在生活中，行动是很不方便的，例如下蹲，下蹲后站立，弯腰，爬高等等。过小的空间会增加这种局促感，会使得老年人觉得很压抑，很不方便。
In the architectural design of apartments for the aged, there are many aspects which are different from ordinary apartments and need to be improved and standardized. For example, in senior apartments for the aged, the size of each functional space must be controlled. Because the elderly in life, although they have no worries about food and clothing, but they are prone to loneliness psychologically, too large space can easily make the elderly produce empty loneliness; at the same time, the use of space can not be too small, because the elderly in life, movement is very inconvenient, such as squatting, standing after squatting, bending down, climbing high. Wait. Too little space will increase this sense of embarrassment and make the elderly feel depressed and inconvenient.
因此老年公寓在设计中要把握几个尺度:
Therefore, in the design of apartments for the elderly, we should grasp several scales:
第一、通道部分--在各个使用功能空间之间连接部分的过道宽度一般保持在净宽1.8M，这样既可以步行通过也可以轮椅通过;
First, the passageway part - the passageway width of the connection between each functional space is generally maintained at 1.8M net width, so that it can be passed by walking or wheelchair.
第二、使用功能空间中的"安全抓杆"，老年人在行动中会有乏力感，体现在起立、下蹲比较困难，一般在需要起立、下蹲、坐、卧等地方设置与地面平行的安全抓杆两根相对地面标高300mm和850mm左右，两根相互垂直设置，或平行设置。
Secondly, using the "safety grab" in the functional space, the elderly will have a sense of weakness in action, which is reflected in the difficulty of standing up and squatting. Generally, two safety grabs parallel to the ground elevation of about 300 mm and 850 mm are set in places where they need to stand up, squat down, sit down and lie down. The two grabs are set vertically or parallel to each other. Set up.
第三、楼梯设置，建筑设计专项规范《老年人建筑设计规范》-JGJ 122-99，《老年人居住建筑设计标准》-GB/T 50340-2003，中规定楼梯踏步宽度不型线  流水槽模具 景观石 检查井钢模具 保定通风管道 隔离墩模具 保定保洁公司应小于0.30m，踏步高度不应大于0.15m，不宜小于0.13m。这也是典型的人性化设计，而且在建筑层数上面也有相应的限制，例如层数不得高于3层，三层以上则需设置电梯等等
Thirdly, staircase setting, building design specifications "Code of Architectural Design for the Elderly" - JGJ 122-99, "Standard of Residential Architectural Design for the Elderly" - GB/T 50340-2003, which stipulates that the width of staircase steps should not be less than 0.30m, the height of staircase steps should not be greater than 0.15m, and should not be less than 0.13m. This is also a typical humanized design, and there are corresponding restrictions on the number of floors in the building, such as the number of floors must not be higher than three floors, the need to set up elevators above three floors, and so on
