Aged Care Refurbishment: Meeting Changing Needs

Aged care refurbishment is transforming to align with residents' changing needs and preferences. Facilities are moving towards person-centred care models, prioritising individual autonomy and choice. Refurbishment projects aim to create homelike environments that promote dignity, independence, and social engagement. Refurbishment initiatives focus on improving residents' overall quality of life by updating outdated infrastructure and enhancing accessibility and safety features.

Aged Care Design: Embracing Innovation

Innovative design concepts are reshaping the aged care landscape, focusing on creating modern, functional, and aesthetically pleasing environments. Aged care design integrates hospitality, wellness, and sustainability to foster community and belonging. Interior spaces are designed to maximise natural light, optimise spatial flow, and incorporate biophilic elements to enhance well-being. From communal lounges and dining areas to private living quarters, aged care design prioritises comfort, accessibility, and sensory stimulation.

Interior Design in Aged Care: Creating Comfortable Living Spaces

Interior design plays a crucial role in shaping the ambience and atmosphere of aged care facilities. Designers focus on creating inviting, comfortable, and inclusive spaces that cater to residents' diverse needs. Warm colour palettes, ergonomic furniture, and sensory-rich environments create calming and nurturing spaces. To evoke nostalgia and familiarity, attention is given to incorporating familiar elements from residents' pasts, such as artwork, memorabilia, and familiar furnishings.
