Visualising how you may fit into a new environment is hard to conceive when you are so familiar with your current home surroundings. Making the decision to move into an integrated retirement community or care home has always been a big, and often tough, choice. Sometimes it is spurred on by necessity which makes the move even harder, but more often we are seeing people decide the time is right to move into a new home that suits their needs as they change.

Experiencing the environment in an integrated retirement community or care home and how you could conceive your life there, can generally only be seen from a sweeping tour. Being able to experience through VR and CGI imagery how your life could integrate into a new home can make the decision to move more approachable and welcoming.

Carless + Adams has developed a virtual reality package to not only assist our clients in their provision of better care, but also help future residents and their families view and recognise how their lives could be improved by moving into an integrated retirement community or care home. The combination of 360 panoramas, virtual tours, video walk throughs and imagery will enable residents and carers to experience the comfort in bedrooms, the community environment from the communal living areas and exemplary facilities throughout. Access to such visual tools enables operators and internal designers to assess the best configuration of furniture choices and their orientation whilst achieving similar results to mock up rooms, but on a more efficient basis.
