Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Population aging has become a global trend. As an important place for daily interaction and leisure for the elderly, the quality of the environmental space of urban parks profoundly impacts the life experience and well-being of the elderly. In recent years, installation art, as an important element in landscape design, has gradually become a key means to enhance the attractiveness of park space due to its interactivity and immersion. However, current research mainly focuses on the functionality and ecological benefits of urban parks, and research on how landscape installation art can meet the needs of the elderly and promote their emotional experience and social interaction is still relatively limited. Therefore, this study systematically combs through the relevant literature on urban parks, landscape art installations, and the needs of the elderly, constructs a comprehensive conceptual framework to fill the existing research gaps, and provides theoretical support for the planning, design, and management of parks. The study aims to enhance the elderly's experience of using landscape installation art in urban parks, thereby improving their quality of life and happiness and providing a reference for future related research.
