Care for Living

In Collaboration with Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC)
Hosted by SIDS Prestige Platinum Sponsor, Daikin Singapore

Designing for longevity, ageing-in-place, and evolving lifestyles requires a holistic approach that prioritises dignity, independence, and autonomy across different stages of life. This includes ageing-in-place strategies such as home modifications and universal design, as well as exploring assisted and supported living models that provide care without compromising personal freedom. Intergenerational living, where grandparents and families share adaptable and inclusive spaces, can strengthen family connections while supporting changing needs over time. At a community level, senior living can move beyond institutional care towards community-based models that encourage social interaction, participation, and a sense of belonging. In collaboration with the Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC), these principles can be further translated into innovative furniture, interior, and living solutions that respond to the changing needs of an ageing population while promoting flexibility, accessibility, comfort, dignity, and independence.
