The towns Lysá nad Labem and Milovice announce the design competition "Home for Seniors – 21st century", looking for a prototype for a new type of senior home focused on dignified and gentle care for both body and soul.

The subject of the competition is to design a new typology of homes for seniors with special needs, offering a higher standard that is affordable for the public contracting authority, and to test it in pilot projects.

The pilot project for a modern seniors' home will be designed in accordance with the current material and technical standards issued by the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs. Competitors will develop it for a building plot in the cadastral area of
Lysá nad Labem and also examine the possibility of adapting it for a building plot in the cadastral area of the neighbouring town of Milovice. The aim is to create a flexible model that will work with sustainable, aesthetic, and economic values and
utilize the principles of contemporary prefabrication. The ambition is to design a dignified home that respects our senior citizens.
