Abstract

How to actively respond to the aging of the population and further improve people’s livelihood and well-being is a practical problem that needs to be solved urgently and it is also the purpose of this research. Through the comprehensive application of observation method, case analysis method and literature research method, this article conducts a comprehensive analysis of the Chinese elderly population and conducts an in-depth exploration of the design optimization of barrier-free packaging for the oriented needs of the elderly. It is concluded that the package design should be people-oriented and pay attention to the physical and mental characteristics of the elderly, such as the decline of visual judgment, the slowness of action capability, and the pessimism of psychological emotions. The packaging should have the characteristics of information transmission, usage experience, and barrier-free emotion communication, not only to bring safety and convenience to the elderly in terms of use, but also to give the elderly sufficient humanistic care. This conclusion also has certain theoretical significance and practical value.
