  • Description: The population ageing, an effect of the accelerated demographic transition in Brazil, highlights the necessity of designing to fulfill the demands from this population segment, which, despite comprising the senior age range, stays active and maintains its autonomy in day-to-day activities. Thus, this study had the intent of discussing, from the perspective of ergonomics, the interface design standards in residential washing machine models available on the Brazilian market, in order to present a redesign proposal envisioning better experiences for elderly users. ergonomics, elderly, interface, redesign O envelhecimento populacional, um efeito da transicao demografica acelerada no Brasil, evidencia a necessidade de se projetar para atender as demandas deste segmento da populacao que, embora compreenda um extremo etario, mantem-se ativo e com autonomia nas atividades cotidianas. Deste modo, o presente estudo teve como proposito a problematizacao, sob a otica da ergonomia, dos padroes de interface nos modelos de maquinas de lavar residenciais disponiveis no mercado brasileiro.
