초록

This study evaluates 38 senior centers in Gunsan City to provide data for improving leisure facilities for the elderly. Analysis of floor plan configurations shows a trend toward open space designs in recently built or renovated centers. While universal design is increasingly included in new or updated facilities, older centers face challenges due to physical constraints, particularly at entrances, where improvements are essential for better accessibility. Demographic analysis revealed that most users were women aged 80 and older, and these centers were not attracting a broader range of elderly participants. Survey data from users strongly support reconfiguring senior centers into multi-generational facilities. Alongside modernizing outdated infrastructure and equipment, these centers could be repurposed as communal spaces for multiple generations, including the current elderly population. While this study highlights the needs of current users, future research should explore the leisure and welfare needs of elderly individuals who do not use senior centers, as well as the middle-aged population who will soon enter this demographic.
