This paper concerns research carried out to study conditions for elderly residents in an apartmental extended-care facility, located within a housing development in Yokohama. It is hoped the research will be of benefit in the architectyral design of such housing. The research carried out involved the following surveys : In the questionnaire survey, questions were put to all households on the number of residents, their interrelationship, the total amount of furniture, and the layout of the furniture. Questions were also put to individuals, concerning household type, employment, medical care, everyday activities, lifestyle, bathing, usage of communal facilities, hobbies, and group activities. In addition, the furniture arrangement according to apartment type was recorded in a field survey, group activities were studied in a participative survey, and apartment remodelling and the utilization of communal facilities were researched using existing data. Considerable insights were garnered in this research on extended-care apartmental housing for the elderly. 1) Household type: In the three years and ten months since moving in, 24 person had passed away from among the total of 326 households in the facility. A large number of women were living alone. 14% were employed. 2) Everyday activity: The average waking time spent in the apartment was 620 minutes, and the time available for leisure was 518 minutes. The lifestyles of the elderly residents could be divided into four types. 3) Furniture: Although there were some differences between apartment types, the density of furniture was approximately 30%. 4) 35% of residents bathed in their own apartment; the communal baths were more popular, at 65%. The average usage rate of the dining hall was around 57%. As for other communal facilities, some were featured in the residents everyday lives, and some were made use of only occasinally. 5) On the whole, the residents actively participate in group activities, but there are also some residents who don't participate in any. 6) Medical care and nursing: A look at the number of persons hospitalized per 1,000 population-days shows a rising tendency. In outpatient care, the number of patients treated per 1,000 population-days was 97 for men and 115 for women. There were 9.3 sanatorium attendants per 1,000 population-days; this figure becomes larger as the age of the patients increases.
