For the elderly's daily life, small scale designs for such as environmental conditions in walking area and social contact in neighborhood, are very important. 3. Study on relocation of a nursing home for blind older adults This study aims to clarify the process of re-cognition and re-organization of new environment for the blind elderly. As time passed, the cognitive map of the blind relocatees had changed from route-map to survey-map. 4.
