RetroFutureFit is a senior living center with a focus in promoting independence and encouraging activity for the elderly population of Bata Town, East Tilbury while fostering community and connection between the residents and the youth population of the area to create beneficial relationships for both parties. These goals are reached by creating a “third place” that is inviting and entertaining to all age groups where both demographics can engage in activities and socialize. A collection of spaces are interconnected within the facility and open to the public to visit as desired to create a truly inclusive and age-friendly environment. The height of the British Bata influence in the area was during the 1960’s, a time period which the area demonstrates sentiment for through their heritage conservation efforts. The redesigned Stanford House is inspired by this local pride and creates an environment that is unlike the care homes we see today. It is empathetic and inviting to both residents and visitors and leans into the idea of “retrofuturism” by representing ideas of nostalgia for the elderly residents of Bata Town while simultaneously moving towards the future.
