According to the researches, Alzheimer disease progresses slower or even decreases by designing the spaces and living spaces specifically for this disease. In this context, while designing, the levels of the disease were closely examined and activity areas, living rooms according to the nursing needs, open-closed spaces, socialization areas, and mandatory need areas according to these levels were determined. Thanks to the wooden material used, the desired effect of giving the feeling of a ‘’warm home’’ for the patients that could still remember the past well was attained. The design’s aim is to intertwine with nature by moving horizontally.
