Living Architecture: Encouraging Independence Through Inclusive Design

This dementia care facility in Hobart was designed for dignity, privacy, and care to empower the residents to be as independent as possible. Working together, the architects and landscape architect created a rich tapestry that signals comfort, freedom and familiarity to users, leading to ease of use. Here is an architecture reinforcing and enhancing the residents' behaviours and responses, which allows them to live a better life, even with their difficult circumstances.
