Abstract:The situation of China’ s aging population is severe, and the issue of existing community is particularly prominent, where the rate of aging population is generally higher than the social average level, the composition of the population is aging rapidly, the public life is in shortage, the residential environment adapting to the aged people is deteriorative, and the living style is simplex. All of these are severely affecting the physical and mental development of the
aged people and their healthy aging life. Take the residential community of the factory in Xi’ an Textile City as an example, this article proposes the concept of “weaving the community” through transformation, implantation, connection and duplication, to establish a diversified residential system, interactive public service facilities, safety accessible slow traffic system, and convenient public open spaces, so as to improve the community living network and construct an
intergenerational mutual assistance community residential environment of all ages, and realize the goal of promoting active aging.
