Health & Aged Care Architecture

Draftline specialise in the design and construction of buildings and spaces that promote and support health and wellness. This type of architecture considers the impact of the built environment on human health and aims to create spaces that promote physical, mental, and social well-being.

Health architecture can encompass a wide range of building types, from hospitals, healthcare facilities, dental clinics, residential aged care homes, and public spaces that have a high concentration of people with physical disabilities. Some key elements of health architecture include:

  1. Access to natural light and ventilation: Studies have shown that exposure to natural light and fresh air can improve mood, productivity, and overall well-being.
  2. Use of non-toxic materials: Materials used in construction and furnishings can impact indoor air quality and contribute to health issues such as allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems. Health architecture prioritises the use of non-toxic materials that are safe for occupants.
  3. Integration of nature: Incorporating natural elements such as plants, water features, and green spaces into building design can have a positive impact on mental health and reduce stress levels.
  4. Universal accessibility: Health architecture considers the needs of all users, including those with disabilities, by incorporating features such as accessible entrances, ramps, elevators, and accessible bathrooms.

Overall, Draftline designers aim to create spaces that support and promote the health and well-being of those who use them, from patients to staff and managements teams in healthcare facilities.
