In a developing world today, elderly citizens need extra care and attention. Still, at a point, family members may notbe able to provide proper attention to their older ones for various reasons, which may include busy schedules, theskill required, and equipment; hence, a care home becomes an option that can provide a sustainable livingenvironment for the older people. This paper describes socialization as a major problem faced by the elderly in carehomes, which causes isolation and progresses into depression; hence, it proposes a paradigm shift in design thatgoes beyond the boundaries of a hospital or an isolation center. The architectural solutions propose creating a safespace where the elderly can make new connections and rediscover themselves by integrating a vocational schoolwith the elderly care homes that meet the social needs of elderly citizens, providing them with an adaptive andconducive space. Identifying the needs of elderly people is one of the factors considered very important, as it isnecessary to understand that the care of elderly people can be a bit challenging because they become very sensitiveas they age.
