Accessible + Adaptable Housing Solutions
We believe that close working relationships help create accessible experiences for everyone. Our team specialises in Accessible/Adaptable Housing solutions, including Special Disability Accommodation (SDA) and Livable Housing Design projects.
Incorporating accessibility is essential in planning and design
We provide a comprehensive range of services, from initial design and construction assessment to feasibility studies, advice, design planning, and approval processes for SDA and Livable Housing projects. Our team collaborates with architects and developers to ensure each project design complies with accessibility requirements. We also look for opportunities to integrate universal design principles, elevating the accessibility of the final building and making it suitable for any resident, regardless of their abilities.
