- Dimmable lighting in the main living areas and bedrooms lets residents set the light to suit the time of day.
- Light switches and power points are positioned consistently throughout the home to make daily routines simpler and easier to manage.
- The spacious kitchen is positioned to connect directly with the living and dining area, making the home feel open and easy to navigate.

Private, Comfortable and Designed for Real Life
- All three participant bedrooms are spacious private rooms, planned that way from day one.
- Each bedroom has generous space around the bed, making it easy for support workers to provide personal care.
- Each bedroom is also connected to its own private ensuite, giving every participant complete privacy.
- The bathrooms are designed with accessibility and support in mind including
- Step-free showers, slip-resistant flooring, layouts that are easier to move around in while still feeling comfortable and private
- The ensuites include reinforced walls to support grab rails and other assistive equipment that participants may need.
