By using practice-based research, this study has developed a conceptual bathroom design for the elderly who live in suburban areas and concludes that adaptive design is a suitable strategy to implement this design. In the future, this adaptive design strategy can also be applied to create various other spaces in homes for the elderly who live in the same or similar living environment.
