Abstract	The research study emanates from concern for growing population of elderly in our cities who are forced to live alone without much assistance due to shrinking family size, intercity and international migration of their children in search of better opportunities and jobs. The study looks at middle class to upper middleclass elderly population aged 65 and above living in urban cities of India such as Bangalore. The research study stems from the idea that a smart city should have holistic concern for the health and quality of life for all sections of the society. While most smart city proposals usually cater to the young generation and their need for connectedness, there remains a scope for inclusion of IoT based technologies for development of smart and safe homes for the elderly. The project aims to create a design prototype of IoT enabled smart homes which can be adopted easily for cost effective construction of homes for the elderly. The first part of the study focuses on assessment of elderly behavior, socio cultural aspects and sustainable independent living requirements for elderly population in urban cities of India. The second part of the study will propose a Schematic design of an IoT enabled smart home for the elderly including architectural, technological and sustainability aspects. The chapter proposes nesting homes as a smart amalgamation of architectural as well as state of the art technological interventions. A framework for design and integrated health monitoring system based on internet of things is the main contribution of the study. © 2021 Scrivener Publishing LLC.
