As the UK’s population continues to age, the demand for Later Living and Independent Retirement Communities (IRC) is on the rise. These mixed-use developments blend residential, co-living, and healthcare elements, offering a unique living experience that caters to the evolving needs of older adults.

To meet the diverse requirements of residents, we design flexible open-plan spaces on the lower levels of these communities. These areas are thoughtfully planned to house amenities such as gyms, swimming pools, health and personal care services, and restaurants, all of which can be easily adapted as preferences and needs change over time.

Our residential units are carefully designed to accommodate both single and dual occupancy, with a focus on accessibility and the integration of assisted living features. Showers are recessed into the floor slabs for easy access, and columns are strategically placed to maximise space and mobility. This comprehensive design approach ensures that comfort, convenience, and safety are prioritised, creating a supportive environment for all residents to thrive.
