The design of modern Mental Health settings has evolved well beyond the accepted principles of Safety, Robustness and Anti-ligature. Evolving alongside clinical advancements, design must cater to diverse care pathways like Autism, Learning Disabilities, Complex Needs, CAHMS and Dementia. Tailored responses to individual needs, sensory considerations, and spatial qualities are paramount. An appreciation of neurodiversity informs all our design responses and when coupled with post occupancy evaluation and true service user engagement, the solutions can be amazing. In an environment of standardised construction trends, our Mental Health design expertise prioritises person-centred solutions, enhancing efficiency without compromising individualised care. Adhering to compliance and best practices, means we excel in delivering designs across all areas of Mental Health, both in community and forensic settings and on projects of all values and locations. Our Award winning projects at the Lighthouse (Dementia), Red Kite View and Inspire (CAMHS), Ribblemere (Perinatal), The Curve (Community MH) and Aspen Wood (Learning Disabilites) are testimony to this apprach. Adhering to compliance and best practices, we excel in community and forensic contexts. Through engagement and co-production, we innovate, guided by our ethos: Design with People in Mind.
