A specialised frailcare and dementia care development in Kenilworth, designed to offer the highest level of care in a safe and comforting environment. Set on a large suburban site the complex incorporates an existing heritage building, repurposed as the new public interface for the estate. Separate frailcare and dementia wings have been added to the north and south of the existing building, their design sensitive to the existing building’s height and scale. The site plan incorporates the surrounding garden and mature trees with several new intimate garden spaces provided. The dementia wing adopts a circular circulation route, avoiding dead ends and also includes a circular sensory garden walk. The design prioritises the residents’ experience alongside operational considerations in order to create a calming, caring space for what is an extremely challenging and sensitive stage of life.
