About the Company
Taiwan is about to enter a super-aged era in 2025, an era in which no one has much experience; not only have young people never encountered such a super-aged society, but the elderly are also just beginning to realize and experience senior life. Oh Old! is trying to enable the elderly and young entrepreneurs to become each other's companionship and support.
Contemporary elders have time, capability, and resources, yet when the younger generation goes out to work, they become "pseudo-living alone" seniors; meanwhile, young people who come to the community to start businesses operate with their own passion, but they are also lone birds in the community. What seem to be two unrelated entities, however, spark off against each other on the same land. At first, it was the spark of conflict—the community's senior life versus young cultural and creative businesses, mutual unfamiliarity, and the generational gap; the elderly hid in their homes on the old streets they were once familiar with due to incoming tourists, while shop owners were unable to run their businesses properly because of complaints and grievances from their elderly neighbors. Gradually, the old street was left with nothing but tourism, and the life of the elderly disappeared.
The Oh Old! team originated from a research team at National Cheng Kung University. Since discovering this issue, they have gradually used social design and action research to guide both sides from mutual acquaintance, interaction, and cooperation, progressively developing the sparks of co-creation. On the old street, the lives of the elderly now have diverse choices; inside the old houses, the businesses of cultural and creative shops have also gained the warmth of local life. On weekdays, the elderly can visit the shops to chat with the young people, and even acquire new life skills; amidst the same tourism, the young shop owners can also develop senior-related cultural and creative models, fostering creative imaginations to respond to a super-aged society.
