We are about to start design a prototype of a small home for a senior couple in New Zealand. In the first phase of the design process, we need to understand the needs and desires of end users, so instead of guessing and assuming what these might be, we have created this short 5-minute survey to get some real-life information.  Then we will be able to design an appropriate space for these seniors to enjoy.

So, if you’re 60+ and living alone, or as a couple, we'd love to hear from you in this survey. And if you're younger but can imagine yourself as a 60+ person, either living alone or with a partner, please also feel free to complete and answer on that basis.

If you are interested in downsizing in the future or buying a small new home, we will keep you updated with the result of this survey and our design proposal later on.

Feel free to share this on your social platforms – the more data we gather the more relevant our design will be.

We’ll be accepting responses for a week.
