We can see that the cost of public institution construction is only the tip of the iceberg in the total cost of building construction, maintaining and operation from the whole utilized process of most public institution. The institutions will need to loan from the bank when they are constructing for some organizations that a hardly working situation is needed, such as elderly nursing homes, however the annual repayment is only20%-30%of the institution operation budget. Thus, the most experienced sponsors normally are concentrating on the cost reduction of stuff, operation and maintaining. The concentrations are having another common characteristic which is they are all acted in the elderly care architecture except the administration and operation pattern. In the other words, the elderly care architecture design could impact the management and operation of whole institution.There are some different design strategies for high efficiency elderly care architecture when you think through from different point of view. However this research will focus on the two main factors which are how to achieve the later high efficiency service arrangement from the service streamline design and considering the operation convenience and fluency of stuff when designing the spatial pattern. The aim of this research is to discover the better architecture design strategies for improving the operation efficiency of elder care institution.This article starts from considering the current situation and features of local national aging society condition before starting to develop the architecture design strategies. Then, it illustrates the global development of elder care organizations through analysis of collected materials. Afterward, explaining the effected factors of elder care service streamline that lead the institution to lower operation efficiency. Moreover, it clarifies the relationship between the internal service space and institution operation efficiency in the elderly care architecture. In addition, based on satisfying the demands elders and nursing stuffs, the high operational efficiency of elderly care architecture design strategies have been suggested by following the normal architecture design procedure, which are site plan, building layout, nursing unit, service space and the consideration of service streamline and the demand of nursing stud in detailed architecture design stage.
