Additional information
Burton and Mitchell develop “Streets for Life” as an inclusive urban-design concept grounded in research with older people, including people with dementia. The book translates evidence into recommendations concerning familiarity, legibility, distinctiveness, accessibility, comfort and safety. Its EDI value lies in connecting ageing and cognitive diversity with mainstream urban form rather than specialist environments. It is directly applicable to streets, neighbourhoods and regeneration projects.
