Best residential care home design for Global Awards shortlisted
MELBOURNE: The shortlist for the best residential care home design has been declared.
Over 250 designs have been considered by the awards secretariat. One of the finalists in this category is shown below.
An 85-bed care home and assisted living complex could be built as part of a residential development in Leeds.
People would be helped to live independently at the site in Kirkstall if plans are agreed with the council.
Flats and 12 supported living units are included in plans drawn up by developer Rhodos Properties.
It would form the final phase of the wider Kirkstall Place development of 263 homes.
A design report said people living at the site near Kirkstall Lane would be well served by bus stops and close to Headingley railway station.
It said: “A range of everyday facilities is available within walking distance, including Kirkstall Leisure Centre, local shops and services, medical facilities and retail destinations.
The Global Award winner will be announced in December in London. (Globals)
