      ab: Most of the older adults in the world prefer to remain in their current residence as long as possible. It is important to support the older adults live independently. Several studies have been done on the appropriate house design for the older adults, but only limited studies are available on the bedroom design. Therefore, this study aims to develop an appropriate bedroom design for the older adults by applying human factors principles. A total of 11 Indonesian bedrooms were selected as the representatives for the design evaluation. This evaluation was conducted by using bedroom design checklists with 5 points score and the checklists were classified into three subgroups based on the older physical ratings: independent, cane required, and wheelchairs required. As a recommendation, the selection of 15 body dimensions was considered in the design of elderly bedroom. In the end of this study, the guidelines were presented to design appropriate bedroom for the older adults.
