    This thesis develops the architectural proposal for an Active Recreation Center for Older Adults in the canton of Cevallos, based on a comprehensive methodological process that incorporates theoretical, legal, and historical frameworks as key foundations for the project. The study addresses the increasing demographic aging and the lack of inclusive recreational infrastructure, identifying the need for spaces that promote autonomy, social participation, and intergenerational coexistence. Through a qualitative methodological approach, the research integrates documentary review, territorial analysis, case study evaluation, semi-structured interviews, and thematic analysis. These techniques enable a deep understanding of the physical, social, and cultural dynamics surrounding the older adult population, as well as the identification of functional, morphological, and contextual needs relevant to the design of specialized recreational spaces. The proposal is supported by the paradigm of community architecture, which prioritizes human scale, spatial coherence, and social integration within the built environment. Based on this framework, the study establishes architectural strategies that address composition, functionality, contextual integration, and environmental sustainability, resulting in a coherent architectural parti aligned with local territorial conditions and the needs of the older population. The outcome is a preliminary architectural design that organizes zones for recreation, learning, productive activities, and community encounter, articulated through accessible circulations and bioclimatic strategies. The project becomes a replicable model for small and medium-sized cantons seeking to strengthen the quality of life of older adults through inclusive, culturally rooted, and socially cohesive architectural interventions.

    The present work develops the architectural design of an Integral Center for Older Adults in the parish of Pishilata, in the city of Ambato, addressing the lack of municipal facilities specialized for this age group. The Ambato PDOT identifies a critical deficit in infrastructure for gerontological care services, which justifies the need for an architectural proposal that ensures accessibility, comprehensive care, and quality of life. The research is based on a qualitative and descriptive approach. Techniques such as documentary analysis, semi-structured interviews with professional staff, and comparative review of architectural precedents were employed. This process made it possible to identify the theoretical foundations of geronto-architecture, the evolution of residential models, the principles of universal design, and the essential spatial criteria for the physical, psychological, and social well-being of users. The results show that gerontological architecture must prioritize the creation of domestic, inclusive, and adaptable environments, avoiding institutionalized models and promoting residential micro-communities. Based on these criteria, the architectural proposal is organized into three functional modules: a public module for daytime care, a semi-public service module, and a private module composed of residential units that operate as small communities. The design strategy incorporates ramp-based circulation, natural lighting, habitable thresholds, and therapeutic gardens. Thus, the project represents an integral and feasible response to improve elder care in the city, offering a functional and human-centered solution supported by technical, social, and gerontological criterio.

    Population aging is one of the most significant challenges of the 21st century. According to the WHO (2025), the world's population over 60 years of age, which stood at 1 billion in 2020, will exceed 2.1 billion by 2050, of which approximately 426 million will be over 80 years old. The Sucre parish, in the Patate canton, reflects this trend, highlighting the need to implement a gerontological center that addresses the gaps identified in the parish's Territorial Development Plan (PDOT) and in the canton's planning instruments. This research is conducted using a qualitative approach with an exploratory scope and descriptive components. It analyzes the human, social, and spatial factors that influence the quality of life of older adults through observation of the environment, interviews with key stakeholders, document review, and analysis of theoretical and architectural references. The combined application of these techniques allows for the identification of needs, limitations, and potential within the context. The project proposes the architectural design of a Gerontological Day Center in the Sucre parish, focused on the well-being of older adults through the creation of inclusive, accessible, and therapeutic spaces. The facility is strategically located, with easy access and connections to existing amenities, and adapts to the topography and climatic conditions through a low-rise building organized around a central courtyard. The proposal incorporates criteria for universal accessibility, sustainability, and environmental comfort, integrating cross ventilation, solar control, visual connection with the landscape, and the use of local materials with efficient construction systems. Functionally, the complex is structured in blocks that group administrative, medical, therapeutic, social, and service areas, promoting active aging and strengthening community integration in a dignified and stimulating environment.

    En Ecuador, la escasa atención a los estudios sobre el adulto mayor ha creado un vacío informativo y de interés, así como una falta de material especializado. Esto ha resultado en el desplazamiento de las necesidades y requerimientos de esta población, marginándolos en términos de atención integral. Reconociendo el envejecimiento como una etapa de vulnerabilidad, es crucial abordarlo mediante parámetros y evaluaciones integrales que aseguren el bienestar físico y emocional de los adultos mayores. El proyecto en curso tiene como meta principal la creación de material editorial destinado a respaldar las actividades dirigidas a los adultos mayores en el centro gerontológico "Vida a los años". Esta iniciativa busca proporcionar una estimulación adecuada a los residentes del centro de día, mejorando así su calidad de vida. La metodología adoptada incluyó la revisión de antecedentes, investigación bibliográfica y observación. Se aplicó material y actividades a los residentes del centro, evaluando la efectividad de dichos elementos no estandarizados. Además, se realizaron entrevistas a especialistas para obtener una visión general de la situación, generando criterios que contribuyeron al desarrollo del material prototipo. Una de las principales limitaciones identificadas en la propuesta radica en la adaptación a las diversas capacidades cognitivas y preferencias individuales de los usuarios. Las contribuciones esperadas del proyecto buscan fomentar un envejecimiento activo y enriquecedor, promoviendo la calidad de vida de los adultos mayores y teniendo en cuenta sus necesidades y preferencias específicas. Este enfoque integral tiene como objetivo llenar el vacío existente en la atención a esta población en Ecuador

    Este proyecto tiene como objetivo diseñar un equipamiento especializado para la ducha en los baños del Asilo Sagrado Corazón de Jesús. Actualmente, se observan varios inconvenientes relacionados con la actividad del baño de los adultos mayores, especialmente en la zona de la ducha. Estos problemas surgen de las limitaciones físicas del entorno, tanto para los cuidadores como para los propios adultos mayores. Esta situación ha generado que la actividad represente un riesgo para los involucrados, debido a la falta de equipamiento adecuado, debido a la restricción de espacio, dificulta el proceso y conlleva a un desgaste físico considerable para los cuidadores, pudiendo afectar su salud con lesiones musculoesqueléticas. En este contexto, el proyecto propone analizar las mejores técnicas de cuidado y transporte de adultos mayores para luego diseñar un equipamiento especializado que optimice el espacio disponible y facilite la manipulación durante el transporte y la ducha. El objetivo final es reducir optimizar la actividad, mejorar la eficiencia del proceso y prevenir posibles lesiones en los cuidadores. Además, este proyecto se vislumbra como una oportunidad de innovación para la institución y un posible replanteamiento del uso actual del espacio físico. Para llevar realizar este proyecto, se buscará colaborar con profesionales del diseño y de la fisioterapia. La participación activa de los miembros del Asilo será crucial para asegurar que el equipamiento propuesto satisfaga de manera integral las necesidades y exigencias del entorno, contribuyendo así a mejorar la calidad de vida de los adultos mayores y optimizar la labor de los cuidadores.

    The present investigation has as purpose to establish the conditions, requirements and characteristics of the inclusive furniture that adapts to the needs and comfort of the greater adult in spaces of common use in Gerontological Centers, where the user can enjoy a stable and functional environment, taking take into account several factors such as: health, well-being, rights, satisfaction, relationship with the environment and above all with dignity and respect. Currently, the whole world and many institutions are concerned about meeting the needs of the elderly and improving their quality of life, therefore, it is important to consider that emotional, physical and mental stability depends on two factors: the first one life that they took, and the second of the lifestyle that they will carry until their last day of life, that is why they begin to take the initiative implementing programs and activities that keep them active and healthy, and in turn create social inclusion, to eradicate the abandonment, that is to say, that the purpose in general, is to involve the professionals to sensitize each of their areas and thus the older adult is involved in a better way to the gerontological centers, providing space care and health services, contemplating each one of the needs of the elderly. And in this way, this research will contribute to the knowledge and development of these institutions that day by day should improve their interior spaces and above all the furniture they use, since, although it may seem superficial aspects, the healthy interior design that considers all the aspects of comfort, provides emotional stability and contributes to the cognitive and physical development of the elderly within a space.

    The current investigation demonstrates the importance of practicing physical and recreational activities during eld, undoubtedly all over the world the number of elderly people is increasing. Dejectedly, eld is associated with a periods of physical inactivity and illness; such erroneous idea provokes that elderly people avoid doing physical and recreational activities, limiting this group to develop a healthy life style, without realizing the decrease in their physical, emotional, and affective being. Therefore, this situation aggravates the health of their bodies as well as their minds, generating negative repercussion in the organism. In this way, recreational and therapeutic activities as an essential component during eld, for this reason in the current study were determined recreational and therapeutic necessities of elderly people and the importance to develop these activities in a target place designated to take care of their health.

In Ambato city, elderly people do not have adequate spaces to exercise or unwind, in consequence there are few elders who can find diverse recreational activities out of their homes. For this reason, is important to provide optimal surroundings to develop actions that enhance a healthy and active aging process. Through the proposal, this research intends to return their autonomy and a plenty existence during this vital stage of life, ample with experiences, traditions, knowledge. On the other hand, this investigation benefits not only to elders, but also permits to give a new meaning to the building of ex- IESS hospice, its history, and relevant performance in the live on thousands of people in the province. For being a architectonic patrimony in the city, due to this was the place where many people was treaded after the outrageous earthquake occurred in Ambato. As a technique of investigation, it was applied individuals analysis and edification meanwhile for the collection of data it was used surveys, interviews, anthropometrical and goniometrical charts where it was obtained evidence of the recreational and therapeutically requirements in elders. In addition, after analysing the whole information it was applied a design in the inner spaces in concordance with recreational and therapeutic needs of elderly people in IESS hospice, in order to provide settings where these people can stimulate their mind and body creating social relationship bonding with nature, it means that elders can improve their physical, emotional, and affective aspects as an active being and change in society.
