Hainault House
This scheme is centred on
creating an accessible and
inclusive living environment
for all to enjoy the benefits of
nature equally. A communal
configuration addresses the
isolation which may effect the
disabled, a zero-step design,
sensory stimulation and
natural surroundings provide a
therapeutic living environment.

The benefits of living in a
natural environment are
particularly appropriate to
people with disabilities. Who,
with limited accessibility may
be excluded from experiencing
nature in the same way as an
able bodied person.
