Calming connections with nature

As Australia’s ageing population grows, so does the need for complex aged care and support for people living with dementia.

ARCH’s innovative solution presents five care wings catering for people with dementia, those with low and high care needs, as well as spaces for service facilities.

Internal courtyards foster immediate visual and physical connections to nature, complementing Bupa’s gardening and outdoor activities programs.

The gentle and calming ambiance in the outdoor spaces encourages ambling in a non-institutional setting.

A beautifully appointed  private dining room with large balcony gives residents the opportunity to host important events with family and friends. Billiards and library areas adjoin a communal lounge area with  a beverage bar and connection to an outdoor terrace encouraging socialising and gentle activity.
