Kensington, London, UK

specialised design in the heart of historic kensington

The client brief was for the redevelopment and conversion of an existing office building into an elderly care facility specialising in dementia (C2 Use Class). Most of the existing building envelope and structure were to be retained.

Despite the limitations of changing the exterior of the building, the interior provides successful spaces, appropriate for their function and recognisable at a multi-sensory level.

Adaptability, accessibility, and safety are paramount to the design to create a barrier-free environment with exposure to natural light that is essential for maintaining well-being.

Within the constraints of the existing site, Life3A  has created a safe place where residents can enjoy a dignified life in an environment that will encourage social interaction and peace of mind.
