NDIS

The warmth of a real home, with accessibility and durability built into the brief.

Who it's for

NDIS homes are homes first. They are also homes that have to work harder than most, for the participant who lives there, for the support workers who use the space daily, and for the provider or coordinator whose reputation rests on whether the home actually lives well.

We work with NDIS providers, support coordinators, participants’ families, and occupational therapists briefing new home setups. We also work with builders completing Specialist Disability Accommodation and need the finished home furnished to a standard the participant can walk into.

What we bring to an NDIS brief

Accessibility is part of the brief, not an overlay. Circulation widths are planned. Furniture is chosen for stability and weight. Surfaces and textures are picked with tactile and visual comfort in mind. Colour and pattern are disciplined, because cognitive load is as real a consideration as the physical one.

At the same time, an NDIS home should not feel like a facility. The restraint we bring to a sale still applies. A participant’s living room should look like a living room. A bedroom should look like somewhere someone actually sleeps. The dignity of a real home is the point.

Considerations we plan around

Clear floor space for mobility aids, transfers, and support-worker access
Furniture stability, weight, and maintenance for daily use
Tactile and visual comfort: natural materials, calm palettes, light that softens a room
Durable soft furnishings chosen for real wear, not showroom shots
OT recommendations, where they exist, built into the brief from the start
Provider sign-off and, where appropriate, a participant walk-through before handover
